 |  | == Originals  ==  | 
 |  |    | 
 |  | The [[National Archives and Records Administration]] has all surviving federal copies of United States federal census population schedules, and most non-population schedules. They do not grant access to originals except for special situations such as errors on microfilm copies.   | 
 |  |    | 
 |  | Rarely, state or county draft copies of federal censuses can be found at state or county archives. States and counties are more likely to have non-population schedules than population schedules drafts.   |
