Records Management Basics workshop is Oct. 17

University employees are invited to a virtual presentation on Oct. 17 on the management and retention of university records by the Archives Department at UWM Libraries. Derek Webb, UWM records officer, and Shiraz Bhathena, digital archivist, will walk employees through some fundamentals of records management such as:

  • How does records management benefit campus offices and employees?
  • Who is responsible for managing records?
  • What all counts as a “record?”
  • How can I tell how long to keep records and what to do with them afterward?
  • Who can I call to help me with questions I have about records management?

The workshop, which will be from 1-2 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 17, via Teams, is open to all UWM employees who are responsible for university records. There will be time at the end for questions, and the session will be recorded for those who want to view it afterward.

Please follow this link to join the presentation (the recording and presentation materials will be available afterward at the same link).
