Hisorical Repositories

Historical repositories are places where historical information and important material/s are put for safe keeping and preservation. This is done for future referencing incases where persons would want to gather information about the past or a previous event. Some of the places these information may be kept are: warehouses, museums, libraries among others

A few types of historical repositories are:
