Such books, files or systems, and such stationery and supplies shall be paid for by the town, and the selectmen of the town, on presentation of the bill for such books and supplies properly certified to by the town clerk, shall draw their order on the treasurer in payment for the same. [Every] Each person who has the custody of any public record books of any town, city, borough or probate district shall, at the expense of such town, city, borough or probate district, cause them to be properly and substantially bound. [He] Such person shall have any such records which have been left incomplete made up and completed from the usual files and memoranda, so far as practicable. [He] Such person shall cause fair and legible copies to be seasonably made of any records which are worn, mutilated or becoming illegible, and shall cause the originals to be repaired, rebound or renovated, or [he] such person may cause any such records to be placed in the custody of the Public Records Administrator, who may have them repaired, renovated or rebound at the expense of the town, city, borough or probate district to which they belong. Any custodian of public records who so causes such records to be completed or copied shall attest them and shall certify, under the seal of [his] such custodian's office, that they have been made from such files and memoranda or are copies of the original records. Such records and all copies of records made and certified to as provided [for] in this section and on file in the office of the legal custodian of such records shall have the force of the original records. All work done under the authority of this section shall be paid for by the town, city, borough or probate district responsible for the safekeeping of such records, but in no case shall expenditures exceeding three hundred dollars be made for repairs or copying records in any one year in any town or any probate district comprising one town only, unless the same are authorized by a vote of the town, [nor] or in any probate district [composed of] comprising two or more towns, unless the same are authorized by the first selectmen of all the towns included in such district.
(b) There shall be kept in each town proper books, or in lieu thereof a recording system approved by the Public Records Administrator, in which all instruments required by law to be recorded shall be recorded at length by the town clerk within thirty days from the time they are left for record.
(c) The town clerk shall, on receipt of any instrument for record, write thereon the day, month, year and time of day when [he] the town clerk received it, and the record shall bear the same date and time of day; but [he] the town clerk shall not be required to receive any instrument for record unless the fee for recording it is paid to [him] the town clerk in advance, except instruments received from the state or any political subdivision thereof.

When any town clerk has, upon receiving any instrument for record, written thereon the time of day when [he] the town clerk received it [as well as] and the day and year of such receipt, and when any town clerk has noted with the record of any instrument the time of day when [he] the town clerk received the record, such entries of the time of day shall have the same effect as other entries that are required by law to be made.
(d) Each town clerk shall also, within twenty-four hours of the receipt for record of any such instrument, enter in chronological order according to the time of its receipt as endorsed thereon, (1) the names of sufficient parties thereto to enable reasonable identification of the instrument, (2) the nature of the instrument, and (3) the time of its receipt.
(e) If the town clerk receives an instrument for record which [in his opinion he] the town clerk deems to be illegible, [he] the town clerk shall record such instrument, write thereon that it is being recorded as an illegible instrument and, if there is a return address appearing on such illegible instrument, give notice to the return addressee that a legible instrument should be submitted for rerecording forthwith. The fact that the town clerk records the instrument as an illegible instrument shall not affect its priority or validity.
(f) Each instrument for record shall have a blank margin, that shall be not less than three-fourths of an inch in width, surrounding each page of the instrument. Each such instrument that is to be recorded in the land records shall have a return address and the name and address of the preparer of the instrument appearing at the top of the front side of the first page of the instrument. The town clerk shall not refuse to receive an instrument for record that does not conform to any requirement set forth in this subsection, and the fact that the town clerk records an instrument that does not conform to any requirement set forth in this subsection shall not affect its priority or validity.

When any town clerk has recorded any instrument that the town clerk knows to be a release, partial release or assignment of a mortgage or lien recorded on the records of such town, the town clerk shall make a notation on the first page where such mortgage or lien is recorded, stating the book and page where such release, partial release or assignment is recorded, except that a manual notation of such release, partial release or assignment shall not be required if such town clerk notes such release, partial release or assignment electronically by means of a computerized notation that links such release, partial release or assignment to the recorded mortgage or lien. [If the land records are not maintained in a paper form, the town clerk shall make the notation on the digitized image of the first page of such mortgage or lien in a form or manner approved by the Public Records Administrator.]

Save Our Land Records
Real estate drives our economy. The family home is it's most precious investment and the perceived key to the American dream. We can't let greed filled folly, thievery, incompetence and lack of foresight destroy the land record system or the integrity of the real estate transaction. We need a coalition representing the full spectrum of industry participants and consumers with a mission, to protect the integrity of the real estate market for the greater, common good. Please join us in sending a message. We need a system overhaul in the real estate/mortgage/title insurance industry...
We're asking the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve to consider the economic impact of the degradation of quality underwriting standards and controls in the title insurance industry and the impact automated search and examination products will have on the integrity of land records.
