The Reserve Bank of India Archives has four large size records rooms each measuring about 3,800 square feet. The records are kept in centrally air-conditioned rooms. The building is well equipped with fire fighting equipment like smoke detectors with alarm alert system and fire extinguishers. The digital Access Control System is being installed in the record rooms to prevent unauthorised entry.
Recently, Reserve Bank of India Archives has installed a Compactus Shelving System which protects records from dust and enables considerable saving of space. Overall it can be said that records are kept in ambient storage conditions in order to increase their longevity.
