Hello,

I think I have posted to the listserv before but in case I'm mistaken: I am the Records and Information Manager at the University of Lethbridge, which is a medium-sized public post-secondary in Alberta, Canada.

I am considering starting a RIM series in our staff newsletter. It goes out weekly, but I am not sure if I'm committed to putting something together every week and will probably start out less frequently (bi-weekly or monthly). Most staff and faculty have only a peripheral awareness of records management (if that), so I would like to start out with short, very basic topics that are applicable to all staff, regardless of their role. So far, I've come up with:

*         Transitory vs official records

*         Benefits of records management

*         Confidential shredding of transitory records

*         Shredding of student work

*         Email responsibilities (linking to other, detailed guides on how)

*         Naming conventions (linking to another, detailed guide)

*         Recordkeeping for committees (linking to another, more detailed guide)

*         Information security (linking to training resources created by IT)

What other topics would you suggest?

Looking forward to hearing your ideas,
Ashley
