Alongside his job as an editor, Storberget was also responsible for external information, such as preparing brochures and maintaining contact with the press. Gradually, the information service or editor's office was expanded, and Storberget became involved in the stamp service, among other things.

With the reorganization of the Norwegian Postal Administration in 1974 and 1975, its information and market function was strengthened. A separate information section (TI) was placed under the Traffic Department with Storberget as the head.
