PREFACE

The Inventory of Federal Archives in the States is one of the products
of the work of the Survey of Federal Archives, which operated as a nation-
wide preject of the Works Progress Administration from January 1, 1936 to
June 30, 1937, and has been continued since that date as a unit of the
Historical Records Survey, also Operating as a nation—wide project of the
Works Progress Administration and a group of state or local projects of
that Administration.

The plan for the organization of the Inventory is as follows: Series 1
consists of reports on the administration of the Survey, acknowledgments,
and general discussions of the location, condition, and content of federal ,
archives in the states. Succeeding series contain the detailed informati r
secured by workers of the Survey, in inventory form, a separate series num—
ber being assigned to each of the executive departments (except the Depart»
ment of State) and other major units of the Federal Government. Within
each series No. l is'a general introduction to the field organization and
records of the governmental agency concerned; the succeeding numbers con—
tain the inventory proper, separate numbers being assigned to each state
in alphabetical order. Thus, in each series, the inventory for Alabama
is No. 2, that for Arizona No. 3, that for Arkansas No. 4, etc.

For each local office information regarding each series, or unit of re—
lated records, is presented in the following order: title, inclusive dates
("to date" indicating an open file at the time the information was secured)
general description of informational content, description of the system of
filing or indexing (if any), a statement of frequency and purpose of use,
form of the record itself (bound volumes, sheets in folders, etc.), linear ‘
footage, description of the containers, physical Condition of the records ‘
(not stated if satisfactory), location by room number or other identifying ‘
information, and finally, the number of the Form 588A on which this in-
formation was originally recorded by a Survey worker and from which it was
abstracted for the Inventory. This form is on file in The National Archive ‘
When it contains substantial information on addenda sheets which has not H
been included in the mimeographed abstract, indication of this is given by
use of the reference "See addenda."

In Arizona the work of the Survey was directed by Dr. howard A. Hubbard
of the University of Arizona, with Mrs. Meryl E. Morgan as his assistant, !
until June 30, 1957. Since that date the state project has been directed
by Mrs. Morgan. This Inventory of the records of the Department of the
Interior in Arizona was prepared in the Tucson and Phoenix offices of the
Survey. It was edited before final typing by Miss Elizabeth Edwards of .
the Washington office. . 1
