Georgia Archives

The Georgia Archives is the official repository of archival records for the U.S. state of Georgia. Together with the Georgia Capitol Museum it forms the Georgia Division of Archives and History, part of the office of the Secretary of State of Georgia. It is located in Morrow, Georgia, United States. The primary purpose of the Georgia Archives is to identify which state agency records are worth preserving for hundreds of years, transfer those records to the archives, protect them, and make them available to people who need them. In addition, the archives helps state agencies and local governments manage active records and stores the inactive records of state government in the State Records Center.〔(Who We Are ) accessed 2009-06-02〕
==History and facilities==
The Georgia Archives was established on August 20, 1918, after a prolonged effort on the part of the Archive's first director, Lucian Lamar Knight.〔First Annual Report of the State Historian and Director of the Department of Archives and History, Jan. 1, 1919 to Jan. 1, 1920 (Privately published, 1920), 7.〕 The Archives occupied a balcony in the State Capitol Building for twelve years until 1930, when furniture magnate Amos Giles Rhodes left his home, “Rhodes Hall,” to the Archives.
On October 11, 1965 the Archives dedicated its first home built specifically to house archival collections. The 14-story marble building—known to many as “the White Ice Cube”—was hailed as the most modern archival facility in the country.〔Victor Gondos, Jr. to Mary Givens Bryan, 16 June 1961, Secretary of State Subject Files, RG 2-1-2, Box 21, Archives Building General Correspondence, 1959-61.〕〔Andrew Sparks, “Magnificent Home for Georgia’s Past,” Atlanta Journal and Constitution Magazine, 2 Oct. 1966, p. 11.〕 The new home led to the expansion of services, including the addition of records management and microfilming services for state agencies and local governments.
In 1998 engineers determined that the White Ice Cube was sinking due to ground water and nearby interstate construction. Even as the building sank, the archives faced massive expenses to repair the aging HVAC systems. The cost to repair and refurbish the state archives (estimated by some to be as much as $40,000,000) made new construction an attractive alternative.〔Robinson Associates, Consulting Engineers, Final Report: Structural Condition Survey Archives Building Parking Deck, prepared for Georgia Building Authority, project no. 98031.01, May 21, 1998.〕 In April 2001, the Georgia General Assembly endorsed a public-private partnership to construct a new archival facility near Clayton State University in Morrow, Georgia, and adjacent to the Southeast Regional Branch of the National Archives (completed in 2004). Groundbreaking took place on October 30 of that year and the Archives opened its new building on May 6, 2003. Since that time the facility has been awarded design awards by the American Institute of Architects at the state, regional, and national levels.〔(Where Are We ) accessed 2009-06-02〕
