Abstract
This ECAR research bulletin discusses the issues involved in successful electronic records management and provides guidance on how to start and sustain an electronic records management program at your institution. As a foundation for this bulletin, the authors base their insights on professional experience as well as careful exploration of the proceedings of an electronic records forum, “Managing University Digital Assets and Resources: Collaborative Approaches and Persistent Challenges,” held at Michigan State University in September 2008, and Ronald Yanosky’s 2009 ECAR research study, Institutional Data Management in Higher Education. The research bulletin also draws upon the experiences of many higher education institutions to recommend strategies for institutions moving forward.
