Department of Interior Records Disposition Update

Many AHA members have expressed concern regarding the Department of Interior's recent records disposition request to the National Archives and Records Administration. The AHA’s colleagues at the National Coalition for History have issued a statement explaining the controversy and noted that NARA has extended the comment period to November 26.  The AHA will continue to monitor the situation to determine whether there are records of historical significance included in this and what, if any, actions the AHA should take.
