State Library and Archives of Florida

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The State Library and Archives of Florida (colloquially referred to as the Florida State Archives) is the central repository for the archives of state government for the state of Florida. It is located at the R.A. Gray Building on 500 South Bronough Street in Tallahassee, Florida, Florida's capital.

Mandated by state law, the Florida State Archives is assigned to collect, preserve, and make available for research the historically significant records of Florida. It also stores and makes available private manuscripts and correspondence, local government records, photographs, maps, film clips, and materials that complement the official state records and Florida history.

Many photos from the FSA Florida Memory Project photographic collection are used frequently for articles on Wikipedia and assist users in describing events in Florida history.
