I'm an
enthusiast for 'recordkeeping' in the Australasian way and have tried to support
and promote its use. I know that this is resisted here in the UK and
elsewhere in the English speaking world. It's less of a problem elsewhere
as records management is largely an Anglo-Saxon concept.
However,
I'm much less enthusaistic about 'recordkeeper' and prefer to use 'recordkeeping
professional'. It's still difficult to put even that on a passport or application
form.
