Chapter 2 - Policy on Public Access to Records Held at the State Records Center
Rule 16-2-2.1

The State Records Center (SRC) is a centralized storage facility operated by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History for use by state government to store inactive records. All records stored at the SRC must be inactive and scheduled.

Records stored at the SRC are the property of the owning agency, and the SRC is not authorized to permit public access to these records. SRC staff cannot provide information or details about the boxes or the records stored, since some information may be confidential, proprietary or exempt from public access under state or federal laws.

To obtain access to records at the SRC, an individual must obtain permission from the agency of transfer. Said agency must submit a written request, on an approved form, to have the box(es) returned to the agency for access by an individual. SRC staff will return the requested box(es) to the agency within five (5) working days.
