ABSTRACT:
A system and method for providing an inventory of and access to recorded announcement data, the method involving collecting switch data from one or more central office switches of a telecommunications network, extracting recorded announcement data from the switch data, storing the recorded announcement data in a database, and providing one or more users with access to the database through a computer network. The one or more central office switches could be non-incorporated switches or incorporated switches, depending on their ability to store switch data. For non-incorporated switches, which do not store a significant amount of information, the switch data is collected by hand from paper or electronic records and is entered into the database. For incorporated switches, which do store a significant amount of information, the switch data is downloaded from the switch as, for example, translation tables.
