How to Prepare the Documentation Grant Reviewers Expect for the $75,000 LGRMIF Grant

What Documentation Do You Need for LGRMIF?

Based on NYS Archives requirements, agencies should prepare:

• Retention schedules that align with compliance rules
• Inventory logs showing the scope of records
• FOIL retrieval statistics that highlight inefficiencies
• Physical record counts for microfilm, oversized drawings, and paper archives

Why October Is the Time to Start

Most agencies wait until the last minute. The winners don’t. They begin in the fall—scoping, gathering evidence, and building their case early.
