In the court registry or at the court registry

I don't know what would be the right preposition in this context:

Such statements may also be placed on record in other court registries.

or does "at other court registries" sound better?

Hi, If you are using 'registries' to refer to books or lists, say 'in'. If you are using the word to refer to places, say 'at'. Clive
