D R M. G E 4

5 What can we talk about? From ARMA alone, they recommend over 64 different topics Identified 7 different topics to cover Divided into Fundamentals and Electronic records, information and knowledge management L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 5

6 Introduction and Overview of RIM Fundamentals of Records Management Evolution of Records Management Facts and Figures on Records Management Paper vs Electronic Records Professional Records Managers Outsourcing Information Asset or Liablility L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 6

7 What is a Record? Do we know a record when we see it? Information Data Non record Document Working File Record Official record Electronically stored information (ESI) We don t all see the same thing L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 7

8 Records Management the planning, controlling, directing, organizing, training, promoting, and other managerial activities involved with respect to records creation, records maintenance and use, and records disposition, including the management of correspondence, forms, directives, reports, machinereadable records, microforms, information retrieval, files, mail, vital records, records equipment and supplies, word processing and source data automation techniques, records preservation, records disposal, and records centers or other storage facilities. Adopted by 93 rd Congress Second Session May 21, 1974 L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 8

9 More Simple Definition Five Rights of Records Management A good records system controls the creation of records from birth to disposal/archival. The system will provide the right information to the right person, at the right time, right place in the right format with minimum storage and handling cost. L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 9

10 Nonrecords When it is difficult to decide whether documents are records or nonrecords, staff should treat them as records. Nonrecords should not be interfiled with records. Nonrecords must be destroyed when they are no longer needed for reference; extra copies may not be retained after the record copy is destroyed L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 10

11 The minimum RIM requirement* Records Management Policy Inventory of all types of and categories or records Documented classification or index system Retention and destruction plan * irrespective of media and content L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 11

19 Records Retention Records must be made available throughout the entire life cycle of the record Record retention requirement periods are based on regulatory requirements, statute of limitations, and best business practices Records should be destroyed soon after retention requirements are met Consistent and systematic retention of records demonstrates a good faith effort to comply with retention requirements L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 19

20 Records Retention Retention and Disposition Schedule Event date An event that triggers retention Calendar Year A calendar year code is assigned to records when a definitive retention period can be assigned. The retention period is usually based on a calendar year and where there are no conditions that must be met Closed A closed code is usually assigned to records that are case or project related. The records are retained until the case or project is closed Termination (Separation) An expiration code is typically assigned to contracts, grants or other types of agreements that must be retained until an termination date or other legal condition has been met Fiscal Year The retention is based on a fiscal year rather than a calendar year Superseded a superseded code is typically assigned to records that are updated or revised at various times during the records lifetime. Permanent These records are not authorized for destruction by an agency at any point in time L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 20

D R M. G E 30

31 Life of Paper Every country in the western world uses more paper today, on a per-capita basis, than it did ten years ago. The consumption of uncoated free-sheet paper the most common kind of office paper-rose almost fifteen percent every five years between L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 31

32 Paper Production and Consumption Facts Global and US Paper Production and Consumption Statistics Of the global wood harvest for industrial uses (everything but fuelwood) 42% goes to paper production, a proportion expected to grow by more than 50 percent in the next 50 years. (Abramovitz, Paper Cuts, WorldWatch Institute, 1999, p. 124) Industrialized nations, with 20 percent of the world s population, consume 87 percent of the world s printing and writing papers. (Klaus Toepfer, Executive Director, United Nations Environment Program, Keynote Address UNEP s 7th International High Level Seminar on Cleaner Production, April 2002) L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 32

33 Production and Consumption Facts continued Global production in the pulp, paper and publishing sector is expected to increase by 77% from 1995 to 2020 (OECD Environmental Outlook, 2001, p.215) The pulp and paper industry is the single largest consumer of water used in industrial activities in OECD countries and is the third greatest industrial greenhouse gas emitter, after the chemical and steel industries (OECD Environmental Outlook, p. 218) L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 33

34 Digital Information L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 34

35 At the Enterprise Level Ninety percent of data in the world today was created in the last two years Only about a quarter of this data actually has business value Ninety four percent of information produced never gets retrieved Storing and maintaining unneeded data debris is costly and diverts resources away from the management of high value information. L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 35

36 The Electronic Junk Drawer L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 36

37 Legacy data defined Disorganized Includes both structured and unstructured content Most no longer needed Some things have great value, but are difficult to find L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 37

38 Anybody knows this is trouble L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 38

39 But is this trouble? L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 39

40 L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 40

41 The Digital Wave Becomes a Flood The world is experiencing exponential growth of digital information. More information has been produced in the last thirty years than in the previous five thousand - the entire history of civilization.(1) More astonishing are predictions that this existing information base will double in the next three to five years. This information growth is fueled by accelerating adoption of digital technology. Consider the following statistics: Investment in information technology now accounts for over one-half of the United States' gross investment in equipment. Each year, American businesses spend more than $100 billion on computer hardware alone. The use of digital information is growing at 96% per year. 80% of corporate information is in digital form. L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 41

42 Reliability of digital information for archiving The origin: questions about the reliability of digital optical discs (DON) for data archiving Human activities generate an ever-increasing amount of digital data of all kinds, including text, audio and visual documents. This profuse daily production is further increased by the retrodigitization programs carried out all over the world, so that old documents may be consulted and indexed more easily. Digital archiving involves a major ongoing investment to preserve a precious heritage for future generations. However, we are facing a very alarming statement: digital technology is highly convenient for storing very large quantities of data, but the physical media have a relatively short lifespan, since they have not been designed to last indefinitely. If data are not regularly copied, there is a real risk that information will be lost for ever after only a few years. The situation is all the more serious since there seems to be a general taboo surrounding this problem and that, as a consequence, is rarely discussed. For example, people are largely unaware that the digital data kept by hospitals (imaging, etc.) are by no means safe. Recent studies showed that certain brands of magnetic media (hard disks and tapes) and optical discs (CD-Rs and DVD-Rs) are unusable after a storage period of only one year, while other brands showed no notable deterioration after 15 years of archiving. L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 42

43 Enterprise Content Management Now called Information Governance This is an updated definition that I have found - Enterprise Content Management (ECM) is the strategies, methods and tools used to capture, manage, store, preserve, and deliver content and documents related to organizational processes. ECM covers the management of information within the entire scope of an enterprise whether that information is in the form of a paper document, an electronic file, a database print stream, or even an . It is all information from every position, every unit and can be affected by outside organizations and agencies. Most organizations are quickly realizing the need to, and value of, managing information more effectively on an enterprise basis. The evolution of information management governance is now an essential business requirement to mitigate risk, reduce cost and increase revenue. L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W. D R M. G E 43

44 Information Governance Information Governance is getting a lot of attention these days, and for good reason. While risk mitigation remains an important part, organizations are now beginning to view information governance as a way to improve processes, increase business performance, and enable more effective and strategic decisions.

51 Five trends are reshaping records management Records management shifts to information governance Cloud and social platforms render file and declare ineffective (security, legal and privacy risks) Digital preservation forces itself onto the governance agenda Open standards and open source change the sourcing landscape Auto-categorization becomes viable and approachable L E A R N M O R E A B O U T D A S T A A T W W W.
