city archives

Eg:

The Archives is responsible for identifying and preserving permanently valuable records of the City of Sydney Council and making these records available to researchers. It is also responsible for the disposal of obsolete records that have no further long-term value.

The City Archives contains a vast amount of information about the functions and activities of the City of Sydney Council since it was established in 1842. Currently, the Archives has more than 10,000 shelf-metres of archival records, including large numbers of plans and photographs.

To clarify, we can also use ARCHIVAL RECORD. It really depends on various things.
Example sentence:

The City of Sydney Archives is the corporate memory of the City of Sydney, the oldest continuously-functioning local council in Australia.

Birmingham Archives and Heritage Service is a fusion of Birmingham City Archives and the former Local Studies and History service.

disagree Agata Sadza : "akta" to zdecydowanie nie to samo co "archiwum" - w pytaniu wyraźnie chodzi o dokument, nie instytucję

Thanks, but I still think it can be 'archive'.
neutral Jerzy Matwiejczuk : Do A.S.: "Akta" w tym przypadku to zdecydowanie to samo, co "archiwa" (==akta archiwalne).
