STATE & LOCAL GOVERNMENT RECORDS
Kevin J. Swanson, Director
(410) 974-3862
State, county and municipal government agen-
cies in Maryland may offer the State Archives all
files, documents, and records not in current use.
State Government Records. The records of all State
agencies, boards, and commissions that are abol-
ished or that otherwise conclude their work must
be transferred to the custody of the State Archives.
By law, State agencies have their records placed on
retention and disposal schedules. No public records
can be destroyed without scheduling and the prior
approval of the State Archives.
The State Archives shares responsibility with the
Division of Vital Records of the Department of
Health and Mental Hygiene for preservation of and
access to vital records information (Code State
Government Article, sec. 9-1015).
County and Municipal Government Records. All
records that are in the courthouses of the State and
that were created prior to April 28, 1788 (when
Maryland ratified the U.S. Constitution) must be
deposited at the State Archives. All current deeds,
mortgages, and releases recorded in the court-
houses of the State are microfilmed and preserved
at the State Archives for security purposes. Limited
facilities are available for the filming of records of
State agencies. The State Archives also serves as the
official depository for the duplicate copies of subdi-
vision plats formerly sent to the Land Office as
insurance against the loss of the originals.
Rules and regulations promulgated in the Code
of Maryland Regulations give the State Archives a
role in the establishment of archives in local juris-
dictions (COMAR 14.18.03).
