Memos to Agency Records Officers (AC Memos)
NARA Memos to Agency Records Officers (AC Memos) are general announcements issued via email by the Office of the Chief Records Officer for the United States Government. The content of these memos varies but typically includes information about federal records management policies, guidance, training opportunities, and meetings. Some of the memos are transitory and have limited applicability.
