What is the difference between a Collection and a Record Series?
A records series is a group of records with similar purpose that are arranged in a logical order – alphabetically, numerically, by date, etc. A collection is a group of records (that may comprise of many record series) that have some unifying characteristic. For instance, from the Governor’s Office we may get correspondence, press releases and executive orders – all of which are records series; together all of those series make the Governor’s Administration Collection.
