Etymology

The term 'minuting' derives from the practice of writing 'minutes' or abbreviated notes of discussions that occur during formal meetings. The word 'minute' itself comes from the Latin 'minuta scriptura,' meaning 'small writing.' This term evolved in the English language as meetings became more formalized, especially in business and government settings. The act of minuting began to gain prominence in the 18th century as organizations recognized the importance of documenting decisions and discussions for transparency and historical record. Over time, minuting became an essential function of administrative staff, leading to the development of various techniques and templates to facilitate effective note-taking during meetings.
