Records 101 session on April 2 offers intro to public records

UWM faculty and staff are invited to learn about the basics of fulfilling legal and policy requirements for open government as they apply to records and meetings during a Records 101 session on Tuesday, April 2, from 2-3 p.m.

Colleen Ference-Burke, UWM public records custodian, Derek Webb, UWM records officer, and Jennifer Herzog, university legal counsel, will address questions such as:

  • What qualifies as a record?
  • When and how do you have to post public announcements of your meeting?
  • What happens when a member of the public files a request for your records?
  • How do you find out how long you have to keep your records?

The presentation will take place via Teams at this link. There will be ample time for Q&A, and the session will be recorded for those who want to view it afterward.
