§ The Inventory of;Federal Archives_in_the States is one of the products
5 of the work of the Survey of Federal Archives, which operated as a nation-
E wide project of the Works Progress Administration from January 1956 to June
€ 50, 1957, and has been continued in North Carolina since that date as a
i state project of that Administration.
j The plan for the organization of the Inventory is as follows:
i Series I consists of reports on the administration of the Survey,
{ acknowledgments, and general discussions of the location, condition, and
g content of federal archives in the states. Succeeding series contain the
3 detailed information secured by workers of the Survey, in inventory form,
i a separate series number being assigned to each of the executive depart-
? ments (except the Department of State) and other major units of the
Q Federal Government. Within each series No. l is a general introduction
{ to the field organization and records of the governmental agency concerned;
{i the succeeding numbers contain the inventory proper, separate numbers being
,§ assigned to each state in alphabetical order. Thus, in each series, the
i inventory for Alabama is No. 2, that for Arizona No. 5, that for Arkansas
g No. 4, etc.
Q For each local office information regarding each series, or unit of
Q related 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
3 of use, form of the record itself (bound volumes, sheets in folders, etc.),
{ linear footage, description of the containers, physical condition of the
Q records (not stated if satisfactory), location by room number or other
{ identifying information, and finally, the number of the Form 58SA on which
E this information was originally recorded by a Survey worker and from which
j it was abstracted for the Inventory. This form is on file in The National
g Archives. When it contains substantial information on addenda sheets which
|§ has not been included in the mimeographed abstract, indication of this is
E; given by use of the reference "See addenda."
@ In North Carolina the work of the Survey was under the direction of
Qi Dr. C. C. Crittenden, Regional Director, with Miss Mattie Erma Edwards as
j‘ assistant, from its inception until June 1957. Since that tnme it has been
Q unda? the supervision of Miss Emily Bridgers. This IHVsHt0TY of thé
Q r€COFdS of the Department of Justice in North Carolina was prepared in tha
,p Raleigh office of the Survey and was edited before final typing by Dr.
}§ Richard R. Stenberg of the Washington office.
