SHERMAN, Tex. -- Grayson County officials are doing all they can to save some of their old records. Commissioners will discuss a proposal on Monday that will take all old records and convert them to digital files.

The contract is with an outside company and is valued at $1.5 million. Many of the records the county has are from years ago, including many district court records which contain information that cannot be lost.

"Some of them can be destroyed and some can’t. If there are archival documents then we will continue to have the paper record, but others can then be destroyed and that will alleviate a lot of the problems with record storage," Grayson County purchasing agent Jeff Schneider said.

If approved, officials hope to complete the project within a year.
