What is the Sandia Corporate Archives?

The Corporate Archives is used primarily by employees for business purposes. The nature of Sandia's work in the nuclear weapons complex means that many of the Labs' records are classified. However, materials that have been published (e.g., photographs) can be obtained by contacting the Archives. Further, unclassified DOE reports have long been available through the National Technical Information Service. Many of Sandia's recent formal technical reports (known as SAND reports) are available in pdf format on the Sandia Technical Library web site. In addition, some records in the Corporate Archives were reviewed for declassification during 1997; those that were declassified are now available through the Department of Energy's OpenNet.
