We are pleased to announce the release of a new Bulletin: Metadata Guidance for the Transfer of Classified Electronic Records.
This bulletin provides guidance on security classification metadata that must accompany transfers of permanent classified electronic records to the National Archives. This metadata documents the access restrictions, review and declassification, and other metadata elements for classified records.
This Bulletin builds on the guidance in NARA Bulletin 2015:04: Metadata Guidance for the Transfer of Permanent Electronic Records. The Bulletin 2015-04 guidance also applies to permanent classified electronic records. We have also updated our webpage with metadata requirements for permanent records to include the new classified metadata elements.
If you have questions about this bulletin, please email rmstandards@nara.gov.
