Hi Sara,

I just gave a Webinar/lecture to the Master’s Degree in Archives and Records Administration (MARA)at San José State University. It should soon be available on their website as a Webcast, but can also be streamed or downloaded at http://eloquent-systems.com/products/records_videos.shtml. 

The lecture covers integrating paper and electronic records in the same RIM software. The integrated classification scheme and retention schedule is from a municipal government, but you could introduce your own. The lecture shows how the Eloquent Records software package is employed to enable everyone in the organization to file their own electronic documents for immediate access by all authorized personnel. Electronic records includes scanned documents and Email along with attachments.

Contact me directly if you want more information about the software or our experience with it.

Regards,
Merv

Hello,
I am trying to convince the company I work for to scan their inactive
records into a database that any employee can search.  This should cut down
on off site storage retrieval costs and allow users to instantly find the
documents they need.  I am wondering if anyone could suggest some software
that would facilitate this.

I am looking for something that is secure, and I want to be able to add
customized tags (this is for an engineering firm, so we don't necessarily
want to use the same descriptive tags a more academic archive might use).  I
also want something that will migrate easily in the future, so nothing too
obscure or unsupported.

Any advice would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Sara
