Hi Tim,
Glad to share the quiz questions and answers (they are public records after all!) - I actually started doing this when I worked at UNC-Chapel Hill. Below are the links from the UNC Records Management webpage. These were written based upon the policies and laws that UNC follows, so the answers may not be what your organization would or should answer - and some of the questions are very specific to UNC. We played this as a game during our annual meeting with teams of participants - everyone got prizes for participating and the winners got goody baskets - including OUT CARDS!
Here's the questions: http://www.lib.unc.edu/mss/uars/TriviaQuestions.pdf
Here's the answers: http://www.lib.unc.edu/mss/uars/TriviaAnswers.pdf
We created separate links with the questions and answers because I got huge numbers of emails from people who attended and wanted to quiz other people in their offices.
Enjoy!

I run the Local Government Records Office in Mississippi, off
Phil,
I run the Local Government Records Office in Mississippi, offering advice, assistance and retention schedules for city and county governments and their "offspring" -- schools, libraries, etc. My boss oversees the state records program. Neither one of us has any "enforcement" power; he can't even make the state offices use the state records center (which can give you some leverage, in my past experience at the county level). County participation is voluntary, and though municipal participation through collection of a $1 document filing fee is supposed to be mandatory, only a handful of city governments collect the fee.
Our state auditor has some leverage in getting government agencies at all levels to comply with certain standards, but RIM is not part of it. As Caroline said, your best tool is good marketing to get them to WANT to do RIM.
(Caroline, how about sharing your quiz cards?)
