The Martial Taugourdeau esplanade is a private road, located on the border of Chartres and Mainvilliers, serving a group of administrative and cultural services of the Eure-et-Loir Departmental Council.
The Departmental Archives only take in definitive archives. A deposit of archives must be the subject of a slip, signed in triplicate by the head of the depositing department and the Departmental Archives. This slip must be precise and prioritised, as it is an essential tool for any subsequent research in the archive.
Municipalities and hospitals can entrust documents to the Departmental Archives via a deposit procedure. The deposit is prescribed for municipalities with fewer than 2,000 inhabitants and optional for those with more than 2,000 (Code du patrimoine, article L212-11).
This deposit does not imply a transfer of ownership of the documents but consists of entrusting the Departmental Archives with part of the community's archives. The deposit procedure requires the agreement of the President of the Departmental Council and the Director of the Departmental Archives.
