Jeff,

At the Naval Station North Island RAB we came up with an idea 
to save a little money, but it might help solve your problem. 
One of our RAB members volunteered to keep the library files 
up-to-date. The Navy gives her the latest documents and she 
files them at the library. She also removes old documents 
from the library. It doesn't take her all that long to keep the 
documents in order and up-to-date.
