The National Archives was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt, but its major holdings date back to 1775. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.

Archival holdings are comprised of Federal records that date from the mid-1800s to the late 1900s received from over 100 Federal agencies and courts. Hold records from Colorado, New Mexico, North and South Dakota (post-1971), Utah, and Wyoming.

The Colorado State Archives is the legal repository for selected historical and contemporary records and information generated by state and local governments in Colorado. It has records back to the 19th century.

Each state has its own archives, which is completely separate from the National Archives.
