Bob, in 1996, the National Archives of Canada published a short paper
titled "Managing Shared Directories and Files" which discusses
conventions of file and directory naming.

Some of the conventions are a little old (created for Windows 95), but
can be adjusted.

I have a copy of the paper, and will send it to you if you want it.

Best regards.

Subject: [RM] Question on Name Criteria for Electronic Records

Someone off the list asked -  "can you recommend a publication or have
any
info for recommendations for naming criteria for electronic records?"

 

 

I personally can't think of one published strictly for electronic
records.  

 

 

Any thoughts?
