The State Historical Records Coordinator will recommend to the Governor individuals for membership on the State Historical Records Advisory Board, and, from the recommendations, the Governor will appoint individuals for membership. Appointments to the State Historical Records Advisory Board shall be made so that each Congressional district will always have at least one representative. A majority of the members shall have recognized experience in the administration of government records, historical records, or archives. Members will serve staggered three-year terms. For the initial appointment, terms of one, two, and three years will be assigned by the State Historical Records Coordinator. No member shall serve more than two consecutive full terms.
