The National Archival Appraisal Board (NAAB) is a national board operated by an administrator and funded independently by fees for services rendered. There are boards in each of the provinces and territories. The provincial and territorial boards provide monetary appraisals of archival material when the expected evaluation exceeds approximately $1000.00. The boards will only evaluate material owned by the archives requesting the evaluation. The fees connected with the appraisal are the responsibility of the archives. The appraisals are often used to establish monetary value for donors wishing to take advantage of the relevant sections of the income Tax Act. For more information, contact:
