http://www.lib.utexas.edu/taro/tslac/30020/30020-P.html

The Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) was created in 1989 to coordinate and direct the use of automated information and telecommunications devices, systems, or services by Texas state agencies. It was preceded by the Texas Automated Information Systems Advisory Council (AISAC), 1981-1985; and the Texas Automated Information and Telecommunications Council (AITC), 1985-1989, neither of which had the power to monitor and enforce compliance with state-mandated information resources policies and goals. These records document those functions. Types of records include long-range automation plans and initial operating plans of state agencies, correspondence, memos, organizational charts, reports, legislation, lists, notes, drafts, printed materials, legal documents, financial records, speeches, publications, and overhead transparencies. Records date 1981-1997 and 1999.
