Hello
I would be very grateful if anyone who has experience of setting up their
own document archive or storage facility would be willing to let me know
their thoughts, on or off-list. Local government people would be
particularly welcome because that's where I am, but any opinion would be
useful. Obviously, if anyone in the third-party storage business wants to
tell me why I should be advising my employer to put everything into a
external storage facility, I'll take that on board as well.
At the moment, this is just an idea, but I would be interested in hearing
from anyone who, has attempted to create their own storage. We plan to
increase steadily the electronic storage and management of information, but
even as this happens, we will have paper files. It's been suggested to me
that we might also have an appropriate place to store such files in bulk.
But before I take the idea beyond back-of-envelope calculations, I would
like to hear from anyone who would either recommend or warn against such an
idea.
Thanks
