APPRAISAL

Administrative Historical

Those records, not duplicated elsewhere, that document the activities of the bureau as a whole and show its policies, achievements, function, procedures, and activities are of long-term value. However, those records that deal with day-to-day situations have only an administrative value. Records under "1" are letters that do not add any information to that contained in the transmitted material. Quasi-official notices such as memoranda and other papers that do not serve as the basis of official actions, such as notices of holidays or charity and welfare fund appeals and similar papers. Records under "2" relate to the internal administration or housekeeping activities of the office. In general these records relate to the office organization, staffing, procedures, and communications; the day-to-day administration of office personnel; supplies and office services and equipment requests and receipts; and the use of office space and utilities. Also, records that are duplicates of information filed elsewhere.
