"The General Directorate of Archives is the most important archival institution in the country, in which place are collected, preserved, managed, and served important records that witness about the history of the nation and Albanian State. The history of the archives in Albania is closely connected with the history of the nation itself, and the state, and it is a result of the processes and phases of their development. The beginnings of the archival activities go back to antiquity, at a time when in the libraries of the Illyrian states, along with the books, they also used to preserve records. The first record which mention the efforts to establish the Historic Central Archives, is a Decision of the High State Committee, of date 02.01.1931, in which is discussed the by-laws draft for registering of important events. The State Archives were created as a dependent sector to Institute of Studies in 1947. "@en . . . . . "Drejtoria e Përgjithshme e Arkivave"@en .
