ARCHIVIST OF THE HALL OF RECORDS 45

6. identify and preserve Division records worthy of long-term or
permanent preservation.

This Committee made an interim report near the end of the fiscal
year, recommending the implementation of a microfilm program
for the source documents of the Division and suggesting that further
study be given to the development of an integrated records program.
The final report of the Committee will be made during the coming
year and is expected to recommend that the Gasoline Tax Division
establish an information center to provide instant access to all the
records of the Division, regardless of form or location. This center will
effectively combine sophisticated microfilm, computer, telephone, and
teletype systems into an integrated program for records use and control.

The mechanization of documentation will continue, and techniques
such as those outlined above must be developed through the cooperative
efforts of several disciplines, so that effective records programs can be
created. Such programs must maintain a minimum of records yet pro-
vide adequate documentation of valid historical information. Perhaps
the answer lies in sufficient technological development in miniaturization
which will permit permanent retention of all documentation.
