Mission

The mission of the Department of Records and Information Services (DORIS) is to foster a more equitable civic life by preserving and providing access to the historical and contemporary records of New York City municipal government. To achieve this, the Department ensures that City records are properly maintained following professional archival and record management practices and makes materials available to diverse communities both online and in person.

DORIS is dedicated to fostering an environment that is equitable, diverse, and inclusive. DORIS is committed to ensuring access to its services for all individuals and to actively identifying, preventing, and eliminating barriers which may prevent access to its resources.
