Registration is now open for the New England Archivists' June workshop "Records
Management in the Round: Re-purposing your Archival Expertise to Start a
Program" with Sarah Demb, Senior Records Manager/Archivist at the
Harvard University Archives and Sarah Polirer, Manager of Corporate Research at
the Cigna Corporation, CT.
As archivists, we're very familiar with one part of the "records
lifecycle" -- how can we leverage our knowledge to make records management
happen? This workshop will help you to use your expertise and skills to fill in
gaps. You will leave knowing how to analyze active records and records-keeping
systems to help ensure that what should come to the archives actually arrives,
and what doesn't need to be kept is disposed of appropriately by the right
people, at the right time.
-- Can you carry out risk mitigation that keeps senior
management informed and supportive?
-- Do you have a disaster plan not just for vital
records, but for vital systems?
-- Are you protecting privacy and intellectual
property rights while making information available and useful?
You will after this workshop!
