Carol,
Welcome to the world of Records Management! I would suggest you join your local ARMA chapter (see below) where you will find veterans in the field that will be more than willing to mentor you. The local chapter can also provide educational training and an opportunity to network with others in the same industry (oil/gas).

Subject: Introduction: new to Records Management List Serve
Hello fellow Listers:
My name is Carole Shealy and I am a new (and dazed) Records Coordinator for a small interstate gas transmission pipeline. I am also the Records "manager", the data coordinator, the records department and records training department. I was chosen for this opportunity because of my ability to recite the alphabet and because I have a pulse. : - ). This is a lighthearted way to illustrate what I'm sure many Records people have experienced; being thrown into this position with no training or previous knowledge of Record Keeping practices. Not only am I fighting a learning curve to know and understand gas pipeline operations but also RIM, GARP, etc.
I am sharing this for two reasons: First, I would very much appreciate meeting anyone else out there working in the gas pipeline industry, willing to help and share information and processes. Second, I hope that knowing this will explain my sure to follow elementary questions.
I look forward to interacting and sharing and learning.
Carole Shealy, Records Coordinator
