Hi Michelle,
I remember I saw it, but when I opened the source - "A Manual for Small Archives" - I did not find it, probably, I saw it something similar.
May be these publications can help you a little bit, or give some indication where to look - business writing, technical writing

Hello all,
I am back on the listserv after a several month hiatus. My name is Michelle Lamm, I've been in Records Management since the dark ages, and am the Records Manager with the Idaho Transportation Department. I received a deceptively simple request from ETS for a generic list of 'document types'. I blithely said, "No problem, I'm sure I can have one for you in no time!" And so began what has now become a two day 'scavenger hunt' for lack of a better term. I don't know if I am using the wrong search terms, I've used many variations - some of which cannot be printed here. I am looking for a relatively short, generic listing of common document types, i.e. Correspondence, Contracts, Minutes, etc. I keep coming up with metadata articles, articles on file extensions. Would anyone have such a thing, or be able to point me in the correct direction?
Thanking you in advance,
Michelle
