“I now have an automated & secure way to invite departmental record coordinators to submit reports, minutes, charts & evidence of departmental activity ensuring they are properly preserved and accessible for the long-term.”
Brad Houston, Records Officer, City of Milwaukee
“The External Submissions tool is a big advantage in the way town staff can participate in the accessioning of digital records and in digital preservation in general. With this tool, there is no need for a file hosting service, submissions go directly to your repository after they’ve been approved. There is no need to fight email file size limitations and you can prompt colleagues to submit records through an extremely easy to use interface that allows drag and drop or traditional file upload.”
Ashley Large, Archivist, Town of Bedford, MA
Meeting mandates for preserving & publishing public records
For the City of Milwaukee, transparency of government operations and decisions to the public is of the utmost importance. The ability to share meeting minutes and videos is just one example of how they were able to meet the City of Milwaukee's compliance and open records obligations, ensuring they also met Sunshine and Open Meeting Laws by keeping records open to citizens.
