We keep them until superseded then microfilm and destroy - that way we have
a permanent record of changes and/or reference material. It's amazing how
many times we refer back to them

Well,
I dunno
But I've been told....
The RM in me says until superceded plus whatever short retention you think
you can get away with.
The Archivist in me says they are permanent records.
Being of two minds on the issue, the Archivist representing the nobler
aspects of myself professionally, I recon it would be best to keep the
procedures permanently.
The policies are permanent. Both of me agree on this one.
