Did you know that records we all create in the course of doing our work fall under the university’s records retention policy? Different kinds of records have different retention requirements, and there are guidelines that must be followed before the record, whether physical or digital, can be destroyed after the retention period has passed. Not sure what counts as a record? Are you confused about how long you need to keep your records and what the process is for destroying them? Need help letting go of records that are past their retention period? Tamar Chute, the university archivist, will join us March 21 from 9 to 10 a.m. in Fry 235 to provide training geared toward staff. Contact Karla Gengler-Nowak with questions about the event. Karla also will take any record retention-related questions you already have and ensure they are answered during the training session.
