I represent a professional society and have heard that the Smithsonian Institution Archives is the repository for our permanent records. How do I transfer additional records?

Not all professional societies have been assigned an Archives liaison. Contact the Archives and Information Management Team and a liaison will be assigned if you do not already have one. Professional societies, for the most part, follow the same procedures for transferring records as staff do.
