Please join ARMA NOVA for our first meeting of the chapter season, on
September 4, at a new chapter meeting location - Clyde's of Tyson's
Corner.
Our program theme for this chapter season is “eRecords and Information
Governance, leaving the paper paradigm behind.” Our speaker for this
meeting is Paul Wester, who will talk about Managing Government
Records Directive: What all Departments Need to Know.
Mr. Wester will provide an update on what the Archivist of the United
States and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) addressed in the
groundbreaking Records Management Directive issued in August 2012,
based in part on input from government agencies. This bold new directive
sets a new course for federal electronic recordkeeping requirements,
including email, social media, and the cloud. Mr. Wester will explain what is
expected of agencies as a result of the Directive, and will answer
questions and concerns about implementation.
