World Wide Diplomatic Archives Index: Liberia

Legislation

The state of the archives is still one of preservation as Liberia recovers from years of civil war and political strife. An international group of archivists is assisting with the project.

Location

Many Presidential Archives reside in the Executive Mansion in Monrovia. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has its own archive.

Procedures

Researchers should contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to inquire about access to diplomatic archives. Some archival material can be found in the United States at Indiana University as the U.S. institution has aided with the restoration of damaged files.
