My historical society has only 2 staff (Exec. Dir. & myself, archivist/genealogist/museum tour guide). We two are the main people to have full access (We have given my Archives Chair full access as he is also an officer of the Board). We have set PP up at sign in for the various levels of access. Researchers get only access to the research tab; volunteers who do archival input get access to the cataloging side, but nothing in the membership/contacts side. The one thing that I have found that worries me is that since I am the only one who has set up the archives/museum cataloging side, I am the one who knows (almost instinctively after 9 years) how to use it to its fullest. This past fall I had a heart attack and was out for 3 weeks; when I got back the first thing I was told was that I needed to make users guides for both staff/volunteers who might have to use parts of the program they had used only infrequently, plus one for any archives docents who might be helping researchers. These two guides were very hard to compile as I wanted to give new/occasional users enough info to get them using it without overwhelming them. I literally had to sit down at the computer and try to be a newbie and not 'let my fingers do the walking'. Any one out there been in a similar situation? Should there be a member of the Board/staff hierarchy who should have full access just in case? If so, should the person be trained somewhat, or just trust to the guide and hope they pick it up? Any input appreciated.
