As proposed in the original mission statement, "the survey shall cover structures of all types from the smallest utilitarian structures to the largest and most monumental. Buildings of every description are to be included so that a complete picture of the culture of the times as reflected in the buildings of the period may be put on record. " In 1934 the National Park Service entered into an agreement with the Library of Congress and the American Institute of Architects (AIA) as cosponsors of the HABS program. Under this tripartite agreement the National Park Service administers the operations of HABS with funds appropriated by Congress and supplemented by donations from individuals, foundations, historical organizations, and other local, state and federal agencies. The National Park Service sets qualitative standards and directs the preparation of records to be placed in the Library of Congress. The library preserves the records, makes them available for study, and supplies reproductions to the public upon request. The American Institute of Architects provided professional counsel. In 1969, the Historic American Engineering Record (HAER) was established as a companion program to HABS to document structures of technological and engineering significance.

The collections document achievements in architecture, engineering, and design in the United States and its territories through a comprehensive range of building types and engineering technologies including examples as diverse as windmills, one-room schoolhouses, the Golden Gate Bridge, and buildings designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. As of March 1998, America's built environment has been recorded through surveys containing more than 363,000 measured drawings, large-format photographs, and written histories for more than 35,000 historic structures and sites dating from the seventeenth to the twentieth century. This first release adds digital images to the searchable on-line catalog records, including images of the pages of written histories for all HAER surveys and about 25% of HABS surveys, 17% of the HAER survey photographs and a small sampling of the HABS and HAER measured drawings. Additional digital images will be added monthly. As an example, the on-line catalog record for the Beebe Windmill in Suffolk County, New York, shows how the full range of documentation for a survey will be displayed once it has been digitized. The mission of the Library of Congress is to make its resources available and useful to Congress and the American people and to sustain and preserve a universal collection of knowledge and creativity for future generations. The goal of the Library's National Digital Library Program is to offer broad public access to a wide range of historical and cultural documents as a contribution to education and lifelong learning. The Library of Congress presents these documents as part of the record of the past. These primary historical documents reflect the attitudes, perspectives, and beliefs of different times.

The National Park Service oversees the daily operation of HALS and formulates policies, sets standards, and drafts procedural guidelines in consultation with the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA). The ASLA provides professional guidance and technical advice through their Historic Preservation Professional Interest Group subcommittee on HALS. The Prints & Photographs Division of the Library of Congress preserves the documentation for posterity and makes it available to the general public. How Does HALS Carry Out its Mission? HALS documents historic landscapes through written histories, measured and interpretive drawings, large-format black-and-white and color photographs, and other media. Once completed and approved, the records enter the permanent collection at the Library of Congress. HALS places students and professionals with experts in the fields of history, landscape architecture, and related disciplines on intensive, on-site recording projects. These projects produce invaluable documentation while training future professionals in the work of landscape documentation. HALS encourages partnerships with private, government and educational institutions to develop landscape documentation and encourage landscape preservation. View of Lower Terrace Pool at Meridian Hill Park. Washington, District of Columbia, DC. HABS DC-532 Why is HALS Necessary? Historic landscapes are special places. They are important touchstones of national, regional, and local identity. They foster a sense of community and place. Historic landscapes are also fragile places. They are affected by the forces of nature, and by commercial and residential development, vandalism and neglect. They undergo changes that are often unpredictable and irreversible. For these reasons and for the benefit of future generations, it is important to document these places. http://www.cr.nps.gov/habshaer/habs/hals.htm 11/27/2001 Establishment of the Historic American Landscapes Survey (HALS) Page 3 of 5 Current Status of HALS Because this is a new program, many of the details have not been finalized, including funding.

Cambridge, Massachusetts. HABS MA-169 Background Information On July 23, 1934, the National Park Service, Library of Congress and the American Institute of Architects (AIA) established the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) to administer a long-range plan to comprehensively document historic American architecture. Since its establishment, over 28,000 structures have been documented through measured drawings, written histories and large-format photography, and made publicly available through the Library of Congress. Growing out of HABS, on January 10, 1969, the Historic American Engineering Record (HAER) was established for the identification and recording of sites, structures, and objects significant in the history and development of engineering and industry in the United States. With a similar documentation process of measured and interpretive drawings, written histories and large-format photography, HAER has documented, and made publicly available through the Library of Congress, information on over 7,500 engineering and industrial sites and processes. Just as documentation has expanded from strictly buildings to engineering sites and processes, it is natural to further broaden recording efforts to include landscapes. With the growing vitality of landscape history, preservation and management, proper recognition for historic American landscape documentation must be addressed. In response to this need, the American Society of Landscape Architects Historic Preservation Professional Interest Group worked with the National Park Service to establish a national program. Hence, in October 2000 the National Park Service permanently established the Historic American Landscapes Survey (HALS) program for the systematic documentation of historic American landscapes. To date there has been no national program overseeing the quality, content and standards for historic landscape documentation. Although the establishment of the Historic American Landscapes Survey by the National Park Service is very significant, it is merely a first step. To further implement the program, a Memorandum of Understanding has been established between the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), the National Park Service (NPS), and the Library of Congress (LOC). The intent of the Historic American Landscapes Survey (HALS) is to document significant historic landscapes throughout the country via measured drawings, large-format photography, written narrative and other documentation techniques. HALS will document http://www.cr.nps.gov/habshaer/habs/hals.htm 11/27/2001 Establishment of the Historic American Landscapes Survey (HALS) Page 5 of 5 the dynamics of landscapes not already seen in the existing HABS/HAER program models.

HISTORY OF THE PROGRAM In 1933 the National Park Service, Department of the Interior established the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) following a proposal by Charles E. Peterson, an Park Service landscape architect. It was founded as a make-work program for architects, draftsmen and photographers left jobless by the Great Depression. Guided by field instructions from Washington, D.C., the first recorders were tasked with documenting a representative sampling of America's architectural heritage. By creating an archive of historic architecture, HABS provided a data base of primary source Chicago Office HABS staff, circa 1934. material for the then fledgling historic preservation movement. http://www.cr.nps.gov/habshaer/wwdo/index.htm 8/7/2002 HABS/HAER: What We Do Page 2 of 3 " .the survey shall cover structures of all types from the smallest utilitarian structures to the largest and most monumental. Buildings of every description are to be included so that a complete picture of the culture of the times as reflected in the buildings of the period may be put on record." - excerpt from original HABS mission statement In 1934 the National Park Service entered into an agreement with the Library of Congress and the American Institute of Architects (AIA) as cosponsors of the HABS program. Under the agreement the National Park Service continues to set qualitative standards and direct the preparation of records; the Library preserves the records, makes them available for study, and supplies reproductions to the public upon request; and the AIA provides professional counsel. Similarly, in 1969, recognizing the fragility and unique nature of America's industrial and engineering heritage, the National Park Service, the Library of Congress and the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) established the Historic American Engineering Record (HAER) to document significant engineering and industrial sites. A short time later, the agreement was ratified by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE), the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), and the American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical and Petroleum Engineers (AIME). Note: A complete administrative history of the HABS/HAER program is available through the National Archives and Records Administration Record Group (RG) 515. A HAER architect records White Bridge at Vanderbilt NHS, Hyde Park, NY. TODAY'S WORK The original agreements (1934 and 1969) still govern the operations of HABS and HAER, respectively; however, today much of the documentation is undertaken through the HABS/HAER Summer Program. Since the 1950s, college students pursuing degrees in architecture, engineering, history and related fields have been the backbone of the recording activities with guidance coming from trained project HABS architects adapt traditional supervisors and the Washington staff. This opportunity measuring and drawing methods to provides preservation-minded students with entry level CAD technology. experience and training that they can draw from in their professional careers. As part of its professional services, HABS/HAER cooperates with national historical, architectural, and engineering associations and offices assisting them with the creation of documentation that meets its standards. Many organizations draw upon the capabilities and information resources of the program when producing baseline documents for restoration projects, interpretive programs and facilities management. Such cooperative ventures broaden the scope of opportunities for HABS/HAER's involvement in the private sector and professional training. http://www.cr.nps.gov/habshaer/wwdo/index.htm 8/7/2002 HABS/HAER: What We Do Page 3 of 3 LEGISLATIVE AUTHORITY L HABS/HAER draws its legislative authority from the Historic Sites, Buildings, and Antiquities Act of 1935, and the National Preservation Act of 1966, as Amended.
