- Abstract:
- We introduce statistical sampling for the record manager/archivist, its various options and how to correctly apply these techniques with modern aids. Using the mathematical concept of confidence intervals, we propose a statistically sound method for determining sample size and quality. Illustrated by means of examples and graphs, this guide aims to show statistical sampling as a valuable option when defining a successful record and archive management strategy.
