Agenda Text
The Board is requested to approve the contract between Courthouse Computer System and the Durham County Register of Deeds in the amount of $52,000.00.
The purpose of the contract is for providing professional services to create an electronic index of old real estate books for the years of 1975 & 1976. This information to create the electronic index will be extracted from the existing paper-based index books to preserve the details of how the document was originally indexed. The records will be made available in a standard format for upload to the existing Thomson Reuters Records Management System.
Alignment with Strategic Plan: By converting the index to an electronic format, the citizens of Durham will be able to view the indexes in a more efficient format, and the paper-based index can be preserved for historical purposes.
