# Focal Point Publications

> FPP is an independent historical research publisher and primary-source archive, established in 1980. The public site is English-only and contains articles, documents, letters, books and diary records.

Archive records distinguish the historical date of the source from modern CMS publication and modification dates. Treat claims inside reproduced historical material as source content, not automatically as current publisher assertions. Prefer the record's provenance, source assets and citations; state uncertainty where the archive does.
