National Archives Records Centers
Facilities storing records that belong to Federal Government agencies
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has consistently set the standard for records center design and security. NARA is committed to minimizing risk to your records. As part of our commitment to ensuring that your records receive the best in environmental controls and safeguards, we have recently revised our storage standards. The use of advanced fire suppression equipment, appropriate environmental controls, and other structural standards significantly improve the environment and safeguards for your records. Secure facilities means secure records, and the preservation and use of your records is really what NARA makes possible.
