Most Project Management methodologies require that lessons learned are collected in a report at the end of all projects, but is it enough?

Lessons learned, but by whom?

Few organizations make the extra effort to make it easy to find those documents after the project is finished. And without proper access, how can you expect anyone to see your lessons learned?
