Of all documents and materials created in the course of the U.S. Federal government conducting business, only about 3% are so important for legal or historical reasons that they are kept forever. These valuable records are preserved and are available to you, whether you want to see if they contain clues about your family’s history, need to prove a veteran’s military service, or are researching an historical topic that interests you.
