The Northern Territory Archives Service [NTAS] was established in 1983 by the Northern Territory Government as the Government archival authority. The Archives holds government records related to the history of the Northern Territory including records related to child welfare and Aboriginal welfare. It also holds the records of non-government organisations including mission records, and personal records deposited by individuals. The Northern Territory Archives also has a substantial oral history collection. In 2019 the Northern Territory Archives Service merged with the Northern Territory Library to become Library & Archives NT.
