So Chris, under your definition, an artifact is NOT a record?
As an example of an artifact, geological core samples.
Best regards,

Subject: Re: Preserved documents called "records"
Well call me old school, but I prefer to recognize the value of a record within an organization. I operate upon the premise that there are four values historical, administrative, fiscal, and legal.
I was taught that not all documents are records but all records are documents I try to stay away from the nature of records records because it invariably leads the nature V.S. nurture argument. When does a good record go bad and why? A good thread but not he one we are looking at?
