The United States has been accumulating records since the first meeting of the Continental Congress in 1774, and, as the government grew, so did the paperwork it created. Until 1934, however, there were no national archives to consolidate the papers, so each government department, bureau, or office retained custody of its own records. In this Pieces of History blog post, learn about the creation of "The Guide to the Archives of the Government of the United States in Washington," published in 1904. The book was lauded as the first comprehensive list of records held by the federal government and was instrumental in the creation of the National Archives in 1934. https://lnkd.in/gMm-JxdG #HistoricalPreservation #GovernmentRecords #PiecesOfHistory

FIXED ASSETS: The Vienna Convention states that all fixed assets located in the seceding state belong to the seceding state, all financial assets pertaining to or located in the territory of the seceding state belong to the seceding state, and all other financial assets pass to the seceding state in an equitable proportion. The Vienna Convention requires that state archives which are normally located in, or are directly related to, the territory of the seceding state belong to the seceding state. Furthermore, either state may have the right to receive copies of the other state's archives which are related to one's own archives, cultural heritage, or territory.
