The legislative intent of the National Recording Preservation Act of 2000 was to develop a national program to guard America's sound recording heritage. The act resulted in the formations of the National Recording Registry, The National Recording Preservation Board and a fund-raising foundation to aid their efforts. [2] The act established the Registry specifically for the purpose of maintaining and preserving sound recordings and collections of sound recordings that are culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant. [3] Beginning in 2002, the National Recording Preservation Board began selecting nominated recordings each year to be preserved. The first four yearly lists included 50 selections. However, the 2006 list only included 25 selections. Thus, a total of 225 recordings have been preserved in the Registry thus far. Each year, open nominations are accepted until July 1 for inclusion in that year's list of selections to be announced the following spring. "July 1st" redirects here For the Ayumi Hamasaki song see H (song. Thus, nominations for the 2007 list to be announced in the spring of 2008 had to be submitted by July 1, 2007 although nominations are accepted year round.

Each of the first five yearly lists have included a few recordings that had already been selected for inclusion in the holdings of the National Archives' audiovisual collection. The United States National Archives and Records Administration ( NARA) is an independent agency of the United States federal government charged The National Archives maintains holdings of documents and materials created by the United States Federal government that are considered so important for legal or historical reasons that they should be preserved indefinitely. [4] Its audiovisual collection consists of film, sound recordings and videotapes. [5] The National Archives serves American democracy by safeguarding and preserving the records of American Government, ensuring continuing access to the essential documentation of the rights of American citizens and the actions of their government. [6] Thus, those recordings in the National Recording Registry that are of a political nature will tend to overlap with the audiovisual collection of the National Archives. The list shows overlapping items and whether the National Archives has an original or a copy of the recording. The recording on the list that was recorded most recently is Nirvana's album Nevermind and the oldest is Thomas Edison's exhibition recordings.
