Organizational updates
The Archival Recovery Program's "About" page on the official web site has some information about a recent NARA reorganization that is not reflected in this article yet. The official website (https://www.archives.gov/research/recover) is not yet linked here, so I am assuming it did not exist back when this article was originally written. It states that "in August 2015, responsibility for non-law enforcement recovery activities of ART was transferred to the NARA Office of the Chief Operating Officer, while the Office of Inspector General still investigates accusations of stolen records."

I was approached by a staff member interested in getting this information in the article (which is why I am requesting here on the talk page, for COI reasons), and while there are no available secondary sources, this seems like a basic factual update where I was hoping the official website might be sufficient. Note that the web page also states that program was created in 2006, and "as a response to several thefts of holdings by both trusted employees and researchers," both of which are facts not yet contained in the article. If we could get an independent editor to look into us and help with these changes, it would be greatly appreciated! (Pinging, in case you'd be interested in looking at this article again.) Thanks!
