dc.description.abstractThis study examined the management of archival records in Niger State Government ministries, parastatals and local government headquarters, with particular reference to records survey, appraisal, arrangement, description, conservation, preservation, maintenance, security, use, staffing and problems in handling records. The study was carefully conducted, using survey method. The observation and interview instruments were used for gathering information. The information was presented by the means of tables and percentages. The study revealed that management of records in Niger State public offices does not meet the guidelines provided by Posner, Cook, Schellenberg and Maedke. Working equipment as well as qualified professional records managers were lacking. The records were not weeded and not adequately secured. It was further revealed that records centres do not exist in Niger State. There was no records retention and disposal policy as well as adequate funds to run the records units.Recommendations on how to minimise the problems highlighted in the work and to encourage proper management of records in Niger State record offices are also presented.en_US
