You also might contact the NM State Records Center and Archives. They work with state agencies and colleges and, although you are not a state college, they might be willing to give you some guidance.

Subject: [RM] A Little Help?
Hello,
I need some advice from my records management colleagues. I am the lone archivist at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe. We are a four year college for contemporary Native arts and culture and we are looking into starting a records management program for our institution.
I believe I have the administration convinced that in order to start a program, we need to hire a records manager to help me out. I have no staff and little experience with RM, and I understand that if we are to hire one, it won't be a full-time position. That is the reality of the situation.
We have batted around some options--one would be to hire somebody 1/2 time to handle the RM program. Another option might be to hire a contract RM full time for a limited term--say 3 months a year--to handle the program. The rest of the work, I assume, would fall on me. What to do? What are my best options? What will be most cost effective?
There are, of course, many other circumstances and issues to consider, but I welcome feedback and discussion from the RM community.
Please contact me off list at [log in to unmask] if you have comments or suggestions.
Thanks for your time.
