Government Archives

The category of government archives includes those institutions run on a local and state level as well as those run by the national (federal) government.

Anyone may use a government archive, and frequent users include reporters, genealogists, writers, historians, students, and anyone wanting more information on the history of their home or region.

While it is a good idea to make an appointment before visiting government archives, at many government archives no appointment is required, as they are open to the public.
