Hello Everyone,

I'm sure several of you are managing your electronic records, or at least
looking into solutions. If you are, what system do you use? Is it designed
for the retention of inactive records and timely destruction?

We are not looking for content management, but an electronic records
management system to manage born-digital inactive records.  It should
have a chain of custody, a good method for managing the retention time of
records based on the date of the record, not just when you upload the
record. It should be able to easily fit in with our records retention
schedule. When records have lived out their inactive life, it should be
able to route a notification for destruction/purge approval to multiple
individuals. Is there something like this out there that isn't geared
towards simply getting rid of paper, but actually "managing" inactive
records that are sitting on the drives? It seems like most systems are
content management systems, with a retention module attached, and weren't
designed for records management (retention, destruction, etc.).

Please help us find additional software to look into that is more in line
with records management best practices. I look forward to hearing from some
of you.

Thanks!
Sarah Wagner
