How should GILS be used by the records management community?
The following comments were made in October 1997 by John Carlin, Archivist of the United States: “Some agencies, most notably the Treasury Department and the Environmental Protection Agency, currently are using GILS as one means of identifying government records for the purpose of scheduling and appraisal. In fact, NARA appraisal archivists also use GILS as a tool to monitor agency resources that have yet to be scheduled. Employing GILS in this manner appears to be effective”.
