Spring Cleaning

With my last day at work coming in about 6 weeks I have been going through the files in the file cabinets and the binders in the bookcase in my office.   Some of the files I inherited from people who left long ago and had never taken the time to fully go through them.  I got rid of a lot of paper (many boxes worth) when we moved to the new part of the building in 2001.  But one file cabinet, that I didn't use since then, I never took the time to go through the files.  I have now gone through that file cabinet and only kept one file folder that could still have some value.  The rest I either put in recycling or for shredding.   I did the same going through binders in the bookcase and got rid of a lot of stuff, and organized information that could have longer term reference value.  Hopefully then the person who moves into my office will have some room to organize her own stuff.
