NARA's Mid Atlantic Region's logo

The National Archives - Mid Atlantic Region serves the geographic areas of Pennsylvania, Delaware, West Virginia, Maryland and Virginia. It helps federal officials manage information by offering technical assistance and training and setting records retention and disposal guidelines. We also provide cost-efficient offsite storage for non-current federal agency records.

The Regional Archives in Philadelphia also maintains the historically significant Mid Atlantic federal records from 1790 to the present. The historical records, as well as select court bankruptcy records, are open to the public at regional locations.
