COLUMBUS, OH – Laserfiche Document Imaging, the world’s leading government paperless office provider, will debut an automated legislative management solution on Monday at the International Institute of Municipal Clerks (IIMC) show in Columbus.

Laserfiche Agenda Manager streamlines the preparation process for all of governing bodies’ upcoming meetings. A simple, calendar-like interface allows all participants to submit material and set agendas months in advance of each meeting.

With Agenda Manager, clerks can develop, compile, finalize and distribute complete agendas with support materials quickly and easily. It also enables clerks to make agendas and minutes available instantly to internal staff on office intranet and to the public via the Internet.

Laserfiche founder and CEO Nien-Ling Wacker will be on hand to deliver a speech on how city clerks can safeguard their records which are “mission critical” to government continuity. Ms. Wacker, a long-time IIMC supporter and current Municipal Clerk Educational Fund board member, and her company are premiere sponsors of the conference, which will draw over 1,000 city officials from around the world.

“We are pleased to be the premiere sponsor for this important conference,” said Ms. Wacker, who was honored with the IIMC’s first Visionary Award two years ago.“ We want to support these hard-working city clerks and give them a full awareness of how technology can help them. Easy-to-use document management software enables them to serve their constituents better.”

City governments in Anaheim, Calif., Sacramento, Calif., Roanoke, Va., Toronto and 900 other municipalities rely on Laserfiche everyday to provide maximum service to citizens. In these days of shrinking municipality budgets, cities are searching for an opportunity to inexpensively improve their internal operations.

“Agenda Manager is the next logical step towards making government offices completely paper-free and efficient to an unprecedented degree,” said John Devine, Laserfiche Director of Government Services.
