The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is an "independent federal agency of the United States government within the executive branch", charged with the preservation and documentation of government and historical records. As part of its mission, NARA provides public access to federal government records in a variety of ways, including online access to some of our most exciting holdings through their website and participation in digitization partnerships with a range of public and private sector institutions.
