Based on this research, it was concluded that the Library and Archives Office of the Sambas Regency had carried out well according to the classification of dynamic and static archives. However, because the archiving facilities and infrastructure in the Sambas Regency Regional Library and Archives Service are minimal, archival storage is still using conventional media such as cabinet filing and filing shelves. This is far from the current development that uses digital as a storage medium. Maintenance of the archive is carried out periodically for 3 months with makeshift maintenance such as giving camphor in each archive storage media. For the destruction of archives, the Sambas Regency Library and Archives Service has never destroyed archives due to the limited and structural funds that deal with this frequently changing so that the knowledge about the destruction of archives is inadequate but the regulations regarding the archive retention schedule (JRA) have been completed in the formulation and made the regent regulation number 14 of 2014.
