NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS ADMINISTRATION
Public Meeting With Interested Vendors on a Proposal for Ordering
Reproductions of Still Photographs, Aerial Film, Maps, and Drawings
AGENCY: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
ACTION: Notice of meeting and action.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: NARA announces its intent to change procedures for providing
reproductions of archival still photographs, aerial film, maps, and
drawings from the Still Picture Branch, Cartographic and Architectural
Branch, and other units of the National Archives. An initial meeting
with interested vendors was held on December 21, 1994. The proposal
will privatize the reproduction of these archival materials by allowing
customers to place their orders directly with vendors. In addition,
NARA will assign work space to the vendors in its new building in
College Park, MD, in order that the materials can be copied on its
premises. The proposed procedures, scheduled to begin on March 6, 1995,
and continue for a one-year trial period, are intended to expedite the
reproduction ordering process and to ascertain the extent to which
digital scanning can satisfy customer requirements. All vendors
interested in this test are invited to attend the next scheduled
meeting.
DATES: The meeting will be held on Wednesday, January 25, 1995, at 10
a.m.
The trial period is proposed to begin on March 6, 1995, and end on
March 6, 1996.
ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held in Archives II, lecture rooms C and
D, located at 8601 Adelphi Road, College Park, MD.

William T. Murphy, Nontextual Archives Division, at 301-713-7083.
Dated: January 11, 1995.

Acting Archivist of the United States.
