"Managing Electronic Documents"

March 1998 Earlier Later

by Colette Theriault, Newsletter Co-editor


At the March 10th meeting, Ann Rockley spoke about electronic document management. Ann very kindly put together an interesting and informative presentation on rather short notice. She briefly surveyed those present to determine the general level of awareness about the topic. Then Ann began by saying that more and mre of the business is devoted to consulting in the area of document management.

The Internet, intranets, and desktop publishing all produce or make available an unbelievable amount of information that must be managed. Security and accessibliity of the information are the biggest issues ot consider when you design and maintain document management systems. As information proliferates, the tools to manage the information need to develop, and in turn, the capicity to manage more information can grow.
