  abstract      = {Information has become a strategic business resource (Peters & Waterman, 1982). Companies are generating, storing and using huge amounts of information in the day-to-day business practices. This paper posits that this pattern of information use generates more than just technical issues (storage and retrieval techniques, faster IO devices, more efficient hardware) for the field of organization memory. These additional issues center on: How can we assure we get the same information out that was put in? Sub-questions to this main question include: What information should be stored? How can we identify deceptive information? When we see the same data, do we get the same information? In this paper, we use the analogy of human memory to develop parallels between organizational memory and group decision support systems and use the analogy as a basis for discussion about these processes. The paper relates the results of three experiments which can be used to explore the usefulness of the analogy. Finally, the potential for future research streams aligned with this model are discussed.  }
