§ 1230.30 - How do agencies transfer permanent microform records to the legal custody of the National Archives?

(a) Follow the procedures in part 1228, subpart L, of this chapter and the additional requirements in this section.

(b) Originate the transfer by submitting an SF 258, Agreement to Transfer Records to the National Archives of the United States, unless otherwise instructed by NARA.

(c) If the records are not in a NARA records center, submit the information specified in § 1230.28(c).

(d) Transfer the silver gelatin original (or duplicate silver gelatin microform created in accordance with § 1230.14) plus one microform copy.

(e) Ensure that the inspection of the microform is up-to-date. If the microform records were recently produced, please note that NARA will not accession permanent microform records until the first inspection (when the microforms are 2 years old) has been performed.

(f) Package non-silver copies separately from the silver gelatin original or silver duplicate microform copy and clearly label them as non-silver copies.
