Records for New Building



We are building a new library and are currently working with the architects
on getting our wish list down on paper.  We hope to break ground in 2001.

If you have gone through a similar process, you know that you go through
many drafts before the final sketch becomes a reality.  How much of these
drafts and other records should we be keeping for the archives?  There is a
building committee so the official minutes from their meetings should be
kept.  Also, I assume the physical plant will keep the actual blueprints.

Is there a checklist of the types of records connected to a building
project that should be archived?  Any guidance that you could provide would
be greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much.
