relative to the donation of archival records to the state and relative to classified positions in the secretary of state's office.

This bill creates a new fund within the state's Division of Archives and Records Management to support the preservation of historical records and objects. It authorizes the division's director to accept donations of these items and requires an annual report to the governor and council detailing all received gifts. Additionally, the legislation establishes a specific account for donated money used solely for maintenance purposes, which must be continuously available to the division. The law also adds a duty for the director to collect these donations on behalf of the state.
