Records Center Division
The District of Columbia Records Center collects and stores both permanent and temporary records of the District government. The Records Center implements records retention schedules. It accessions, stores, manages, and services inactive records of the District government in its physical custody. The Records Center prepares and maintains finding aids, indexes, registers, and other resource guides to the records holdings in its possession.
Accessions in the Records Center consist of all inactive records created and maintained by agencies of the District government. The Records Center maintains subject files, case files, legislative files, plans, procurement files, speeches, correspondence, minutes, transcripts, proceedings, and other related records of the District government.
The Records Center does not hold legal custody to the records of agencies stored in the repository. Access to records in the Records Center must be secured from the agency of legal custody. The Records Center's staff processes reference and research requests from agencies that authorize access to their records. The Records Center's staff can be reached at (202) 671-1113 or by email.
