Transfer Guidance Goals •  Expand number of formats acceptable for transfer

to NARA. •  Develop a flexible and extensible framework that

can adapt to future needs. •  Balance preference for open, standards based

formats with the business needs of agencies. •  Minimize the need for agencies to transform

records prior to transfer.

Transfer Guidance Approach  •  Identified formats that are:

ü  Preferred ü Acceptable ü Acceptable for Imminent Transfer (to sunset

previously acceptable formats)

•  Split the guidance into two pieces: ü A bulletin that describes scope, authority, general

requirements, and contact information. ü An appendix that includes tables listing formats by

category.
