Rachel, assuming you are planning what amounts to a catalog--as opposed
to a system which stores the video and other electronic content--you
might consider, at the low-cost end, using Microsoft Access and more
specifically one of the free templates. At the higher-cost end, look to
library catalog software.
Good luck.

Subject: [RM] new member needs rec. mgmt. software recommendations
Hello everyone-
I'm a fairly recent MLIS grad who is starting her first real records
management position. My company is a sports media organization. I have a
big task ahead--to archive the basic info about the thousands of videos
and articles my company has produced. I would love recommendations about
appropriate software to do this.
Here are more details about what kind of software I need and what I'm
looking for:
-I'm looking to archive information about thousands of videos and
articles--but they would be searched and looked at separately. (So...two
different categories or divisions?) Basically, I want a program where I
can easily input details about each video and article
-I need up to 12 categories to describe each article or video
-My computer will likely be the only one that has the program on it, so
there has to be a way to back up on the server what I've archived
-This is a bit unreasonable I know, but it'd be nice if the software
didn't become obselete too soon :)
-I use a dell, so it has to be pc compatible
Currently the company is using Excel to store this archived material. It
works, but is a bit messy and hard to use.
Thanks for your help!
