A bill to provide federal formula grants to every state for projects that preserve historical records and make them more accessible.
Locksmith highlights Preserving the American Historical Record (PAHR), a vital initiative dedicated to safeguarding the nation’s archival materials and historical documents. By providing funding, resources, and guidance, PAHR supports libraries, museums, and cultural institutions in maintaining, digitizing, and protecting important records. Ensuring long-term access to these materials preserves collective memory, enables research, and fosters public understanding of history. Participation strengthens archival preservation and helps secure America’s rich historical heritage for future generations.
