County To Improve Archiving/Record Retention Systems
1 min readPotter County has qualified for a joint federal/state program designed to help local governments organize and protect important records. It’s a project being spearheaded by the Pennsylvania State Archives to assist county governments in archiving records and historical documents.
A grant application by the Potter County Commissioners was approved last week. It will cover the costs for a professional archivist/records manager to work with elected officials, department heads and administrative personnel over an eight-week period on archiving, backing up and purging county records. A separate component of the project will be a workshop during which borough and township officials will be educated on record preservation.
