Testimonials

The digitization of our board minutes marks an important milestone for Morris County Golf Club. This project is an essential element in our plan to better protect our cherished history, as well as improve our governance and decision making. Having access to searchable minutes, especially through the Digifind-It platform, has enabled our board and our staff to better understand our history, as well as understand the reasons that important decisions have been made at various times in our past. We are grateful to the team at Innovative Document Imaging for their professionalism, expertise, and especially their technical skills in completing this critical work.

Dan Bromage

Morris County Golf Club, Chief Operating Officer

These collections are being digitized into a product where they are including other collections, similar collections, from repositories all over the world. So by indexing & making them searchable, it really gives such a great context, a very rich context, for our collections, when you see it along with all these other collections all over the world. For the researcher, that’s just indispensable.”

Patti Williams

Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum,
Supervisory Archivist

In theory, everything (before) was accessible, but you had to come to New York to see it. So the big difference for us now, is that really there is no limit on who can come to the archives and make use of them.
