if they had added indexing and organization to the CD you would have paid far more than $90

to create an index you have to analyse the documents identify metadata or properties that you want to capture. You have to identify document types such as a letter, contract etc. once you do that you have to pay someone to do data entry, then you need someone to do a QC on the data entry.

the county clerk did an excellent job cost wise since they basically paid 1 cent per document to have them scanned. Usually you are charged per page and a document doesn’t necessarily equate to one page. An additional factor that must be taken into account is preparing the documents for scanning. This means removing staples, paperclips, binderclips in other words any sort of paper fastener. Then you have to flatten each piece of paper, you have to arrange and then insert into the scanner. I’ll assume that they used a high speed scanner which helped to hold down the cost.

so if you want a searchable organized set of documents be prepared to pay a much much higher price. You get what you pay for.

Also, any clause (like the one after LEAVE A REPLY) before a colon should be a complete sentence (with a subject, a verb, and an object). You could just take that colon out or you could add language to make that clause complete.
