The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), with the generous support of the Foundation for the National Archives, announces a new program designed to give researchers the opportunity to conduct original research using records held at National Archives locations in Atlanta, Chicago, Kansas City, Philadelphia and Seattle.
The National Archives has created a new blog called NARAtions, where the public can learn about and comment on activities and work at the National Archives. The agency recently posted a blog featuring our work in the Mid-Atlantic and my leadership of the program. Please check it out and feel free to comment and pass along.
