100 million documents!
Remember when McDonald’s had signs many years ago saying “billions served”? Well, our Washington State Digital Archives has reached its own milestone that’s worth some bragging.
It now has preserved 100 million electronic records since opening its doors in Cheney in 2004. It’s worth noting that about 40 million of these records originated from other states, but 100 million is a pretty impressive figure regardless.
Secretary Reed, State Archivist Jerry Handfield and others were on hand to celebrate the big occasion at the Digital Archives facility, cake and all.
