Office of Public Records

The Office of Public Records Management, Archival Administration, and Library of Governmental Information was established in 1985 by DC Law 6-19 to collect, preserve, conserve, and service the official records of the District of Columbia government. The Office Public Records consists of three divisions, the District of Columbia Archives, District of Columbia Records Center, and the Library of Governmental Information. These repositories hold a wide array of documents that include administrative, architectural, engineering, fiscal, genealogical, historical, and legal records.

Archivists, records analysts, records technicians, records clerks, and other staff members of the District of Columbia Archives, Records Center, and Library of Governmental Information provide assistance to researchers who request access to the records in these repositories.
