Overview

BoardDocs is a paperless meeting and governance platform built for school districts, community colleges, municipalities, and other public boards. It centralizes agenda preparation, board packets, meeting materials, minutes, votes, policies, and public access so board-services staff do not have to assemble, distribute, revise, and archive separate paper or PDF packets.

The product supports the full meeting cycle: staff submit and approve agenda items, board members securely review materials and make private notes, meeting staff record motions and votes, and the district publishes agendas, minutes, policies, and supporting documents for the community. BoardDocs remains supported by Diligent, although districts should confirm Diligent's current migration path, product packaging, and long-term platform roadmap when renewing or procuring it.

Features
Agenda and packet preparation
  • Builds agendas from configurable meeting and item templates.
  • Collects agenda items and attachments in a centralized workflow rather than through email and separate shared folders.
  • Generates paperless board packets and supports revisions while retaining appropriate access controls.
Board-member preparation
  • Provides secure access to current and archived agendas, attachments, policies, and other governance records.
  • Supports private notes and annotations that board members can use while reviewing meeting materials.
  • Offers context-sensitive search across authorized meeting and policy content.
Meeting conduct and minutes
  • Supports live agenda navigation, motions, seconds, votes, and meeting results.
  • Uses templates to generate and edit minutes from information captured during the meeting.
  • Can connect a livestream with the published agenda and meeting record in applicable configurations.
Policies and governance documents
  • Maintains searchable policy books, procedures, manuals, standards, and codes.
  • Supports internal document access as well as publication of approved governance materials.
  • Can link to an existing online policy system when the district manages policies elsewhere.
Transparency and security
  • Publishes public agendas, minutes, results, and supporting documents in a searchable portal.
  • Applies security at the meeting, agenda-item, attachment, or section level for confidential materials.
  • Districts should verify accessibility, retention, public-comment, video, and closed-session requirements against the specific Diligent package offered.
