Samoa Archives update Report
The Archives of Samoa under the Ministry of Education, Sports & Culture is progressing tremendously throughout the years. Upon its founding in 1996, the existing staff at the time was tasked to salvage and safeguard archival materials belonging to the government abandoned in some old government premises. Most documents were salvaged from the old prison building, Court House, etc. These documents contain important and significant value to the government and the people of Samoa.
