[hr-education] Re: New HURIDOCS manual: What is Documentation

Bonjour,

C'est avec un grand plaisir que j'ai parcouru le document sur la gestion
d'un système documentaire. Il sera d'une grande utilité pour mon travail
quotidien. Il est très rare de trouver sur internet ce genre d'outil.
C'est une mine d'information aussi bien pour les professionnels que ceux
qui sont intéressés à la gestion d'un centre de documentation et qui n'ont
pas pu bénéficier de la formation requise.

En attendant les différents volumes, recevez mes vives félicitatons.

>
>   What is Monitoring
>   What is Documentation
>   How to Set Up Your Documentation Centre
>   How to Index
>   How to Search for Information
>   How to Record Names of Persons
