Treasures from the Archives: What Can I Send to the Archives?

Dolescum / CC BY-NC-SA 2.0 The Archives is pleased to announce a new collecting policy to help staff determine what types of materials should be kept for permanent retention as part of UCAR/NCAR's historical record. View the new policy.

A Records Management Task Force has been created to evaluate the policies and procedures for materials that are not of historical significance. We have consulted with a Certified Records Manager and are working toward a new plan for staff boxes and providing retention guidance to staff. The Records Management Program has more information or contact Kate Legg, Archivist.
