It All Started With a Mouse...

"If you can dream it, you can do it. Always remember that this whole thing was started with a dream and a mouse." 

85 years ago today, Walt Disney and his brother, Roy, founded The Walt Disney Company. That's clear proof that what starts out small can turn into something huge. The Pennsylvania State University did something similar with its imaging and document management system - they started small and expanded. In the article Penn State's Document Imaging Initiative, you can read how Penn State's centralized imaging service helped to overcome cost and infrastructure hurdles within departments of all sizes in order to leverage their enterprise-wide imaging license. 

According to Kevin Marroney, vice provost for information technology and CIO for Penn State, "The challenge was to develop a solution that could address the document imaging needs of any department, large or small, without exhausting departmental budgets or staffing resources."
