Hi Andrea,

We categorize this type of material as  "Reference Materials" which are 
identified as  "Published and internal information used for ready 
reference".    They are kept within the departments themselves and never 
stored offsite.   The retention period is listed as "review annually and 
destroy outdated material".

Once the departments realised that they couldn't send this type of 
material offsite, the compliance rate to the retention schedule 
skyrocketed.   They simply did not have the space to retain this type of 
record indefinitely.
