Website Records Management Guideline
This guideline explores how information posted on websites may constitute records. It offers records and information management (RIM) advice and best practices recommendations for managing website records. It covers roles, responsibilities, and risk management for website management, including website lifecycle issues, technologies for creating and attaching metadata, web content management, capturing and harvesting website data, and meeting the challenges of Web 2.0.

This guideline is designed to help RIM professionals extend their IT knowledge while assisting IT professionals in gaining a clear understanding of records retention and archiving requirements and methodologies. It provides guidance for professional collaboration between records managers and IT to create cohesive information management solutions.

Contracted Destruction for Records and Information Media
Designed to guide organizations when contracting for destruction services, this guideline identifies the critical components that must be addressed so no records or information in any format are compromised during any part of the destruction process.
