Subject: Update of US National Archives Title List via FTP
The Center for Electronic Records of the U.S. National Archives
has updated the FTP-able file containing the Center's "Title
List: A Preliminary and Partial Listing of the Data Files in the
National Archives & Records Administration" (TITLE.LIST.JUN2394).
The FTP directory can be accessed by FTPing to FTP.CU.NIH.GOV
(128.231.64.7). Log on as an anonymous user; press enter (or
enter your user name or 'guest') at password prompt. The
directory in which this information is stored is NARA_ELECTRONIC
(CD NARA_ELECTRONIC); it contains six files. Use the FTP GET
command to retrieve copies of the files, as in GET
TITLE.LIST.JUN2394.
The Title List now has 12,439, 80 character lines (approximately
900k). Since last updated in December, entries for the following
major series have been added: the 1980 Census of Population and
Housing, STF3B (Bureau of the Census), the Federal Assistance
Awards Data System, 4th Quarter 1993 (Bureau of the Census),
Republic of Vietnam Army Incidents File, January 27 1973-April
20, 1975 (U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff), the Defense Contract
Action Data System, 1976-1985 (Office of the Secretary of
Defense), and the Effectiveness of Federal First-Line Supervisors
Surveys, 1991 (Merit System Protection Board).
