Thorofare, NJ (PRWEB) May 21, 2009 — InOutsource, a leading provider of records retention and information management consulting to law firms, announced today that NJBIZ, New Jersey’s weekly business journal, named the company a finalist in the journal’s Green Leadership Awards in the category of Green Education.

An independent panel of judges agreed that InOutsource’s environmental educational program showed achievement and initiative. Last August 2008, InOutsource began educating the legal industry on the top practices for environmentally friendly records management. With new technology and new electronic-based processes, corporations had started to demand that their law firms follow environmentally friendly practices. InOutsource saw an opportunity to educate these law firms on best practices in records management to help them comply with client demands; these practices lead to reduced paper usage, reduced resource usage, decreased storage needs, increased recycling and more.

Launching the campaign at the International Legal Technology Association annual conference, InOutsource distributed a list to show attendees – printed on recycled paper and designed to be posted on a bulletin board at work — of the top 10 environmentally friendly records management practices, and also contributed $1 for every person who visited their booth to The Nature Conservancy’s Plant a Billion Trees campaign. At the show, they spoke with hundreds of attendees about environmentally friendly records management practices. The company posted the same list to their corporate Web site so every visitor can see the link when they visit. This top 10 list generated interest from legal industry publications for more information so Nancy Beauchemin, President of InOutsource, began contributing articles on the use of best practices in records management that lead naturally to environmental consciousness. These articles reached more than 92,000 readers.
