The documents were discovered in November by the president's personal attorneys when they were packing files housed in a locked closet as they prepared to vacate the office, according to Biden's White House lawyer.

When visitors seeking to go to the Penn Biden Center entered the building at 101 Constitution Avenue NW, they'd first need to check in with front desk staff in the lobby, according to sources familiar with the process. Visitors would then take the elevator up to the floor containing the Penn Biden Center offices.

In the conference room, Biden was pictured speaking in a meeting with former Mexican President Felipe Calderon and, in another photo, speaking with UPenn students and alumni. Now-Secretary of State Antony Blinken was snapped laughing with a Japanese diplomat. Tucked away to the left of Biden's desk, the floor plan shows, was a small closet. To his right, the conference room and office sandwiched a small closet and a large, walk-in sized storage space.

Chung is among several Penn Biden Center members who later joined the Biden administration, including officials at the White House, Pentagon and other diplomatic roles.
