Special Media Services Division stack area
Stack areas at the National Archives at College Park, Maryland, are furnished with shelving appropriate to the size and type of records stored there. Most large items, including many drawings in this exhibit, are placed in oversized chemically-stable file folders and stored in large horizontal map cases. Large drawings, maps, charts, and other documents are stored flat in order to avoid damage to their edges and to prevent wear as a result of folding and unfolding.
