The File Formats for Transfer of Electronic Records to the State Archives of North Carolina document provides information about appropriate file formats for transfer of electronic records to the State Archives. It is a companion document to File Format Guidelines for Management and Long-Term Retention of Electronic Records, which is intended for state and local agencies who are maintaining electronic records in-house. The latter document has descriptions and explanations about file formats, whereas the File Formats for Transfer document lists only those formats recommended, acceptable, and not recommended for transfer to the State Archives.
