The City of Pittsburgh received a $133,934 two-year National Historical Publications and Records Grant from the National Archives and Records Administration to enhance access and discoverability to its archival collections from 1816-2006. Under the award, the City will arrange, describe, and rehouse approximately 750 cubic feet of records from its City Council, Board of Viewers, and City Planning Department collections. The grant-funded project supports the National Historical Publications and Records Grants program's objective of preserving, publishing, and facilitating use of documentary sources important to understanding U.S. history. Completion of the arrangement and description work will make these local government records more readily available to researchers.
