FOI #25-190 (04-26-25, 10:20 pm) - Subject - NCAA Financial Report/MFRS

Name - Gregory Chick

Affiliation - NILnomics

Greetings,
I hope this message finds you well.
I am writing in reference to a recent public records/FOIA request for which I received the requested documents—thank you for your timely response. Upon reviewing the files, I noticed that the FY 2021 MFRS/NCAA Financial Report was provided in a format that is not machine-readable. Specifically, the content appears to be scanned as an image, which prevents text selection and inhibits my ability to extract data programmatically.
Would it be possible for your office to provide an alternative version of the report in a machine-readable format (i.e., with selectable, searchable text)? Having access to a text-readable version would greatly facilitate my analysis.
I appreciate your attention to this matter and would be grateful for any assistance you can provide.
Sincerely,


Greg Chick
