State Government Electronic Records
The National Historical Publications and Records Commission seeks projects that will accession, describe, preserve, and provide access to state government electronic records of enduring value.
Government information maintained by state archives is national assets, serving as important resources
for documenting rights and capturing the national experience.
The NHPRC will support projects that actively engage in activities that preserve electronic record assets and make them available for public discovery.
The Commission encourages collaborative projects that bring together multiple parties to plan for and carry out project goals and outcomes.
The NHPRC strongly encourages applicants to leverage the resources resulting from the Council of State Archivists State Electronic Records Initiative (SERI) to inform their work.
Projects in this program cannot digitize historical records.
If you intend to digitize as part of processing, refer to the Access to Historical Records announcement; if you already have description and are looking to publish the digital surrogates, refer to the Digital Dissemination of Archival Collections announcement.
In addition, projects cannot establish electronic document management systems that only manage born-digital records with limited retention periods.
Applications requesting support for these activities will be considered ineligible in this program.
