Great suggestion, Ken! Is their anyone already using Karen Clifford's method? I looked at it on her website and my only question is... If you are using RINs and MRINs to file your paper files, I guess you can never compact your file but reassigning unused RIN/MRIN numbers? Also, I have 7800 people in my file (and my file is small compared to many of yours!). In Karen's info, she has her notebooks divided up by 100s. The That is great if you have documents for people in the first 500 RINS but what if I have a document for RIN 6592? I would have to have dividers for 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, all the way up to 6500 just to file this document.

'How Legacy's To-Do list, Research Log and Calendar will help you to keep track of your genealogical research' This would be great follow on to the forthcoming Karen Clifford Webinar 'Organising for Success'. Just an idea!

You should 1) base the plan on clues found within the document and on sound research methods, standard genealogical sources, and material specific to the area, time period, and subject of this records; and 2) identify fully any publications, personnel, repositories, or records (original, in print, or electronic) you would normal consult in following that plan. I really would like to use the Legacy research calendar because it really looks nice but it is too spread out. I won't be able to get my 10 sources on one page.

Perhaps you are thinking of accreditation through ICAPGen. Although it won't look like a traditional research log, I concur with Sherri that the To-Do feature is perfect for the purpose of a research log (and more). There are myriad ways to format the reports to make it less "big and clunky." For those who prefer the traditional format, however, try: http://www.family-passages.com/Tools.html These are "fillable" in Excel.
