The 2010 Emmett Leahy Award
Awarded for Outstanding Contributions and Accomplishments that Have a
Major Impact on the Records and Information Management Profession
The Emmett Leahy Award is presented annually to recognize an
individual whose contributions and outstanding accomplishments have
had a major impact on the records and information management professions.
The award honors Emmett Leahy, an icon in the development of the
lifecycle approach to managing records and information. Emmett
Leahy chaired the historic Hoover Commission on Paperwork Records
Management Task Force. The recommendations of this task force
resulted in the establishment of a government-wide records management
program for federal agencies of the United States Government. Leahy's
records and information management concepts have been widely applied
in business and industry throughout the world.
Emmett Leahy established a unique spirit of innovation, dedication
and excellence through his work in records and information
management. This tradition is perpetuated in the prestigious award
that bears his name.
