Dear Colleagues,

In a post to this list on 21st Pearl requests: If you have created taxonomy
for similar purpose, I'd appreciate if you could share it with me.

As you are a University I believe that a number of Universities in Australia
have addressed your issue and in fact have posted their classifications
schemes based on Keyword AAA on their web sites. E.g. the Curtin University
of Technology in Western Australia @
http://www.records.curtin.edu.au/records_management/classification.html
which is a secure site but i believe if you contact Gregory J Wrighton, ARMA
- Manager, Records and Archives he may be able to assist in your request.

The Swinburne University of Technology have placed their Thesaurus
Alphabetical Index online @
http://www.swinburne.edu.au/corporate/registrar/rms/alpha_a_to_c.htm 

There are others available online including Retention & Disposal Schedules
if one cares to research the subject.


 

Another source could be the Administrative Functions Disposal Authority [the
whole 488 pages] available for downloading and located @
http://www.naa.gov.au/recordkeeping/disposal/authorities/GDA/AFDA/summary.ht
ml

  

E.g. 

 

Meetings

 

The activities associated with ad-hoc gatherings held to formulate, discuss,
update, or resolve issues and matters pertaining to the management of the
section, department, or organisation as a whole. Includes arrangements,
agenda, taking of minutes etc. Excludes committee meetings.

 

Another source is the Records office of New South Wales with their General
Disposal Authority - University Records (GDA9) online @
http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/publicsector/disposal/gda9-univ/gda9-uni.htm#3
.%20General%20Disposal%20Authority%20-%20University%20Records 

Or shortened to http://makeashorterlink.com/?H2451105D

I trust that Pearl and others in the University environment find this
information of interest and value.

Regards, Laurie
