Local Gov Action Team
Margie talked about the call that the newly formed action team, and how some clarification of what it was they were supposed to be doing was needed. We talked about what was discussed at the breakout table at the July workshop, and really the need is to understand what is at risk in this area. More granularity with local government information categories is needed, there are different issues depending on the local environment. We talked about a survey, that might be useful to get a sense of some of the issues, and whether the states are providing any guidance to local governments about preservation and retention of digital information. Who is thinking about these issues at the state and local levels, and what's being done. Margie pointed out there are existing surveys that have been done; maybe a compilation of those into a list to share with others would be useful. We could capture information and promote as a part of NDSA.
