President's Digest

Message from the President

Dear member,

Our first meeting held on September 3, was a great success! We had several new and familiar faces attend. It was great to hear about King County’s Electronic Records Management Project challenges and progress.

Our next educational program will be on October 1. Speaking will be Nicole Smith, who will talk about Electronic Recordkeeping for RIM and IT Professionals. This meeting will be held at Seattle City Hall room 217, which is located inside the council reception room, from 8 a.m. breakfast; the program will begin at 8:30 a.m. The cost of this meeting is $5—less then that coffee place. Visit our Website for more details at: www.armaseattle.org
I hope you plan on attending!
