Records Transferred to the Custody of the National Archives at Kansas City
Effective June 25, 2021, custody of the attached series of records was transferred from the National Archives at New York City to the National Archives at Kansas City. All future reference requests will be handled by the staff in Kansas City. Any requests to use the records in person will be conducted in the research room in Kansas City and require two business days advance notice. Reference requests should be submitted to: kansascity.archives@nara.gov
The affected records have been stored in the Kansas City area for over 15 years and Kansas City staff have been assisting with reference requests on the records for the past 10 years. The change in custody ensures that all necessary records accessioning, processing, description, preservation, and reference services can take place at the location where the records are housed.
As of July 1, 2019, staff at the National Archives in New York City relocated approximately 65 cubic feet of accessioned RG 276 holdings (Records of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit) stored in New York City and Philadelphia to the National Archives at Kansas City. These records join the rest of the Second Circuit records already stored in the Kansas City area. This relocation facilitates more efficient archival research and public access to these records.
Effective July 1, 2019, all reference requests for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit should be directed to the National Archives at Kansas City. Please email: kansascity.archives@nara.gov
