Originally, the materials of the District National Committee of Strakonice were stored in the State Archives in Třeboň and transferred to the District Archives in Strakonice in 1974. Presidium files were taken over by the archives in 1956. Part of the fonds was processed in 1980. The most recent acquisitions took place in 2020 when the district authorities ceased to exist.
