Finding Aids for Selected Collections
SMA has created finding aids for over 700 record series. These documents provide background on the individual and/or agency that created the records, information about what topics and issues are covered by the materials, and a full folder listing. (For more information, see What is a Finding Aid?) The finding aids are hosted on the Archives West consortium's website; links to them are arranged below by creating department.
Note that certain types of documents are filed with the City Clerk by various City departments. If you're looking for all finding aids related to a particular department, be sure to check the listings in the City Clerk category as well as those under the department itself.
