When did the Belize Archives Department(BAD) came into existence?

The Belize Archives Department(BAD) came into existence in late 1965. The staff of the public library assisted in organizing and operating the Archives Unit, until it changed its name to the Belize Archive and Records Service(BARS) in September 2006.
