The Indiana State Archives collects state and local government records determined to be of historical significance. Records must be approved for State Archives transfer in the relevant records retention schedule. Once records are transferred to the State Archives, title to the records is permanently transferred to the Indiana Archives and Records Administration.
Detailed instructions for transferring records are available on the State Archives web page; the associated State Archives Record Transmittal and Receipt Form (SF 48883) is available online in PDF formats. For more information, call 317-591-5222 or e-mail arc@iara.in.gov.
