"There were four organizations which gathered and analyzed intelligence for the Senate and other agencies of the Old Republic - the Republican Security Organization, the Senate Bureau of Intelligence, the Interstellar Consortium on Technology, and the euphemistically labeled Special Acquisitions Branch of the Library of the Republic."
―A report from the Imperial Security Bureau to the ISB Central Office, prepared shortly after the Battle of Yavin[1]

The Special Acquisitions Branch of the Library of the Republic was a premiere data-location service of the Galactic Republic during its later years, and one of the Republic's four major intelligence agencies. In the years leading up to and during the Clone Wars, the agency fell victim to corruption and senatorial misuse. To counteract this, the organization's director met in secret with the directors of the three other major intelligence agencies, all of whom voted to quietly merge their agencies into a single organization. After the rise of the Empire, this combined agency emerged as Imperial Intelligence under the direction of former SBI director Armand Isard.
