Transfer Records to the Records Center
- Fill out a
Box Content Form for each box and place it into its corresponding box. We also encourage departments to provide content LISTS for each box ( 
Content List EXAMPLE ). Email recordsrequest@sarpy.com and include the number of boxes you would like transferred to the records center and any content LISTS you created. The Records Management department will submit a work order to have the boxes picked up and delivered to the Records Center.
- Please do not write on the outside of boxes.
- Folders should be placed upright so all tabs are visible.
- Do not over-pack boxes. Leave approximately 1-2 inches of empty space to allow for easy access. If additional files will be added at a later time determine the appropriate amount of space that should be left to allow for the files.
- Include only one record series per box. A record series is a group of related records that should be retained for a similar length of time.
Request Records
- Send a request to recordsrequest@sarpy.com . Please include the title of the document you are requesting in the subject line and any other important information in the body of the email. A staff member will respond when the record is ready to be picked up. When requesting an entire box of records a work order will be submitted to have it delivered to your office. If you do not recieve a response within 30 minutes please contact the records department by phone. *IF you are requesting a record that belongs to another department you MUST contact that department & have them submit the request to us*
