There are currently two NARA search engines in use, NAIL, the National Archives Information Locator, and ARC, the Archival Research Catalog, currently 68% complete and slated to eventually replace NAIL.

For a two page primer on using NAIL and ARC: Click Here. (A PDF reader required.)
Links to detailed help are provided with both search engines.
Note: The primer's address for ARC is out of date and will not work.
