Some hoax believers are fond of claiming that NASA doesn't make information available. What they usually mean is that they can't find what they want on the internet, and they don't seem to realise that there are special buildings called libraries or archives where real researchers often work, looking up books, documents, magazines, newspapers, microfilms, microfiches, diaries, journals, accounting books, maps, plans, diagrams, and photographs.
A bibliographic essay, starting on page 396 of the book, mentions some of the author's sources, as follows: "The primary source material for the present history was the large collection of documents from the Apollo project maintained, at this writing (1987), in the History Office at the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston. More than 31,000 documents collected by the JSC historian over a 20-year period occupy nearly 150 linear meters of shelf space in more than 775 document boxes."
150 meters of shelf space vs. "Nasa doesn't make anything available." Uh-huh!
