MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Administration
Director of Information Services
SUBJECT: OIS Weekly Report (18-24 April 1984)
A. PROGRESS ON ACTION ITEMS
1. The team of three Agency reviewers, including one from OIS's
Classification Review Division (CRD), has completed all but 107 archives
boxes of the OSS records that were accessioned to the National Archives
and Records Service (NARS). The reviewers have been tabbing documents
mostly because of foreign liaison connections that should be cleared with
the foreign government concerned before the documents are released to the
public.
SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AND ITEMS OF INTEREST
1. Representatives of RMD attended a presentation by a represen-
tative of Wallace Computer Services concerning the use of bar codes on
courier receipts. RMD has been working with the Mail and Courier Branch,
OL, on the use of a bar code system to replace the Agency's obsolescent
punched card receipt system. Support was expressed by all attendees and
OL management will be asked to consider the procurement of a bar code
system.

2. A representative from DO/IMS met with RMD representatives to
discuss problems associated with automated records systems. DO/IMS is
interested in the types of problems RMD is experiencing in scheduling
machine-readable records, the steps other government agencies have taken
to satisfy Federal records retention requirements, and the guidance
available from NARS. DO/IMS is exploring the establishment of a Compre-
hensive Central Collection (CCC) system for all DO operational records.
There was a good exchange of ideas for identifying and resolving common
problems related to automated systems.
3. Representatives from RMD participated in the DA Career Day
Seminar. An upward mobility position in the planned Information Services
Center at Ames was explained to attendees. Unfortunately, only three
attendees indicated an interest in the OIS position. Attendance at the
Seminar was disappointingly low.
SCHEDULED EVENTS
IS00 inspection resumes on 3 May. (Please refer to OIS Weeklies
dated 25 January and 14 and 21 March for earlier reporting on the IS00
Inspection.) A representative of RMD will accompany Mr. Harry Mason,
IS00, who will review document classification procedures in the Office of
Global Issues, DI. He will also be briefed on the Agency's information
security and special security programs in OS.
