Does anyone work with a large volume of paper records

[monkeywrangler71]

preferably in a records management position, but not necessary, and would be willing to help me with a course assignment?

It involves answering some rather detailed questions about a series of your records - but just about their physical aspects, nothing about content other than a document name and general description of what they are (ie. invoices, payroll, etc.) - so you would need to be quite familiar with them, or have access to them to answer the questions. There are questions involving the retention schedule, so you would have to be familiar with how long they are kept and what happens to them at various stages.

Ideally, should be a mid to large size company. The volume of records needs to be high (instructor said 1500 boxes, which is just ridiculous outside of a records centre, but should definitely be more than just 1 or 2!). I will not ask for, or disclose if provided, your name or the name of the company.

It's not a huge assignment, only 8 questions. It's just a matter of finding someone who has the resources to answer them.

I need to have it done by the end of the week. If anyone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it, as I don't know anyone who works with a lot of paper.


PS. We were instructed to interview someone if we didn't have access to records ourselves, so it's not cheating or anything.
