很久以前（不久以前），一位苏丹学者对他或她的共管公寓历史（1898-1956）研究的档案材料感兴趣，得到了一个简单的建议：“去英国吧。”达勒姆大学的东方图书馆和伦敦的公共档案局一样，仍然收藏着大量的苏丹资料。但是，在喀土穆，档案逐渐集中起来，这使得最近更名的国家档案局（Dar al-Wath " iq alQawmiya）在穆罕默德·易卜拉欣·阿布·萨利姆博士的得力指导下，几乎在任何研究行程中都是优先考虑的这些藏品被安置在以前是20世纪苏丹最著名的政治人物之一al-Saiyid CAbd Rahman el Mahdi的花园封闭的宫殿住宅中。在这里，研究人员可以参与历史氛围和大量官方文件，这些文件可以追溯到盎格鲁-埃及共管公寓的建立至今。对于那些对Gezira历史感兴趣的人来说，位于巴拉卡特的Gezira董事会档案中心是国家档案局的附属机构。
Once upon a time (and not so long ago), the Sudan scholar interested in archival material for his or her research in Condominium history (1898-1956) received the simple advice, "Go to England." Durham University's Oriental Library still has a superb collection of Sudan material, as does the Public Record Office in London.2 But gradually a work of archival centralization has been taking place in Khartoum which has made the recently renamed National Records Office (Dar al-Wath''iq alQawmiya) under the able direction of Dr. Mohammed Ibrahim Abu Salim first priority on just about any research itinerary.3 The collection is housed in what was previously the garden-enclosed palatial residence of one of Sudan's better known twentieth-century political personalities, al-Saiyid CAbd Rahman el Mahdi. Here, the researcher may partake of both historical ambiance and a large array of official documents dating from the establishment of the Anglo-Egyptian Condominium to the present day. For those interested in Gezira history, an adjunct to the National Records Office is the Archive Centre of the Gezira Board in Barakat.
