The akashic records or akashic library is a relatively recent concept in Western occultism, in its formal sense -- that there is a kind of library where all knowledge of all events is stored forever. In practice, it is more like a lake. You dive in, grope around blindly in the mud on the bottom, and sometimes your hand closes on something to bring to the surface, but often you don't get anything.
Accessing the akashic records is a psychic activity that is unreliable. Because it is unreliable, you cannot trust the results you get. That is why the Pentagon decided to close Project Stargate -- the psychics were getting interesting results, but those results were unreliable. To run a war you need reliable information, not information that may or may not be partially accurate in some way.
True, but from the ancient Greeks to the masons there's been the excercise of a "memory palace". Not quite the same, but interesting
