A. Research: Archival collections provide resources for scholars and researchers studying government and history by strengthening and augmenting existing collections in the fields of New Mexico government and history.
B. Exhibits: Archival collections support exhibit programs that interpret New Mexico's heritage to statewide, national and international visitors.
C. Outreach: The SRCA shall promote the use of private collections through increased public awareness of the nature and importance of the archival materials. The acquisition of collections may be publicized in local newspapers and agency publications.
