Our new phone number will be 303-604-4700.

The Genealogical research room will open October 9th at 8:30am. Their new phone number is 303-604-4740

All prospective researchers for textual research may reach the archives staff to make an appointment by calling (303) 604-4740 or by email at denver.archives@nara.gov.

We will continue to post updates as the date draws near, and provide information on our status and our opening of the new building for the public; please stay tuned.

We regret any inconvenience the delayed opening of our new building may cause our researchers. For assistance or concerns, our staff can be reached at denver.archives@nara.gov or (303) 407-5740.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during the move to our new building, where we will be better able to assist all researchers in the near future.

We have a number of ways that we can assist you:
