This department directs the orderly and systematic maintenance, preservation, and disposition of the records of the City of Bridgeport in compliance with State and Federal laws.  To do so it operates a records center for the storage of non-current records, and an archive for the City’s permanent and historical documents.  The Records Manager/Archivist assists other departments in solving records and filing problems, arranges for the destruction of obsolete materials, microfilms permanent records, and answers a variety of questions from the public about the City’s past and present operations.
