While looking about online for something else, I ran across the records retention schedules and process to get the schedules approved on the Alabama Archives website. I have posted the information and links on the BGS blog. http://birminghamgenealogy.wordpress.com/2007/11/06/alabama-records-disposition/ I have not looked at them all, but did open the one for Probate Court. There was some interesting information there. I wonder if there is a way to obtain the plan submitted for each county agency?
