# §1254.22. Do I need to register when I visit a NARA facility for research?

- (a) Yes, you must register each day you enter a NARA research facility by furnishing the information on the registration sheet or scanning an encoded researcher identification card. We may ask you for additional personal identification.
- (b) NARA facilities in the Washington, DC, area contain several research rooms; you must register in each research room you visit on a daily basis.
- (c) **In regional archives, you also sign out when leaving the research room for the day.** In some Presidential libraries, where we instruct you to do so, you sign out when you leave the building.
