In a series of exclusive interviews with U.S. News, Mueller and his top aides detailed the steps they have begun to take. The changes, they say, mean transforming an investigative agency into an intelligence-gathering service and re-orienting virtually everything about the FBI's institutional culture and its traditional operating procedures."| Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due |
