CT News Junkie | Committee Weakens Access To Historical Records By Redacting Names The legislation <http://www.cga.ct.gov/asp/cgabillstatus/cgabillstatus.asp?selBillType=Bill&bill_num=HB05124&which_year=2014>is designed to lift prohibitions on accessing medical records in the state archives 50 years after the death of the person. It would set a 75-year time limit for withholding other types of documents in the archives. But the amendment is a step backward for historians, who have been asking the legislature to pass the bill. Sen. Anthony Musto, the committee's co-chairman, voted against the change because it will prevent historians from cross-checking records. http://bit.ly/1j7MnuT Source: http://www.ctnewsjunkie.com/archives/entry/committee_weakens_access_to_historical_records_by_redacting_names/ See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/1j7MnuT+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar -- Peter Kurilecz CRM CA IGP [log in to unmask] Dallas, Texas Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org http://twitter.com/RAINbyte http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/RAINbyte/ http://paper.li/RAINbyte/rainbyte http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/archives/ http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/records-management/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/peterakurilecz Information not relevant for my reply has been deleted to reduce the electronic footprint and to save the sanity of digest subscribers List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
