DIR Launches Record Conversion Service for Texas Government

What to Know: DIR has launched a new record conversion service through Shared Technology Services to help public entities digitize paper records, CDs and DVDs. Participating entities can choose how digital files are structured, where they are stored and what happens to the original physical materials after conversion. DIR is framing the service as part of Texas’ broader push toward digital government, citing House Bill 5195 and declines in statewide print and mail volume.
