Records management pros are in the trenches of modern technology, but keeping pace is no easy task. Records Managers and Archivists alike work hard to keep up with the rapidly changing industry.

Software Integrations in the World of InfoGov
Read time: 2 minutes
Picture this: you’re at the office, and you have a job to do. Naturally, you need software to complete at least some portion of your job. You’ve found that no single platform has all the features you need to complete the work. Many infogov professionals are in the same boat. Repeating data entry into multiple systems and keeping them in sync manually can be a time-consuming process. How do you address this common and frustrating issue?
Many of us use the best features from different systems and create a process to get the systems to work together,...
How Information Governance Brought Plain Language to the Forefront
Read time: 2.5 minutes
Tired of hearing about the GDPR? Me too. That’s why I’m not going to talk about it for long. Still, one term that appears in the language of the GDPR continues to resonate with me, and that’s “transparency.” Article 12 of the GDPR requires the use of transparent communication. More specifically, it reads, “The controller shall take appropriate measures to provide any information and any communication relating to processing to the data subject in a concise, transparent, intelligible and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language…” It’s important to understand that transparency...

Saved $$$, Increased Efficiency, Reduced Risk? Welcome to Effective RIM!
Many Records and Information Management (RIM) professionals hear the question, “Why is RIM necessary?” My short answer is that effective RIM saves your company money, makes it more efficient, and reduces its risk. I want to expand on that answer by listing some of the ways a good RIM program can work for you.
Disposition of Records
So why not just keep everything? One reason is for certain types of records, disposition is required by law. For example, in some locations, it’s mandatory to dispose of Personally Identifiable Information after a short period. Also, disposition of records reduces the quantity...
Using Information Governance to Comply with California’s New Privacy Act
Data privacy continues to be a hot-button issue. Several factors contribute to the recent flurry of global legislative activity. These include rising reports of security breaches that compromise personal information, lack of visibility into what personal information is collected, and limited control for owners to determine how information is used. The United States is no exception. Due to a lack of centralized formal legislation on data privacy, efforts to change are mounted at the industry, federal, and state levels.
In recent months, Louisiana, Vermont, and Colorado have passed amendments to their existing data breach and notification laws. The changes range...
RFID: The Tech That’ll Take the Ladders Out of the Records Center
Chances are high that you use radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology every day—yet you probably don’t know how it works or that you’re using it. Do you wave a security card over a turnstile or in front of a door when you arrive at work? Do you zoom through toll booths with an electronic pass you paid for online? Have you ever set off alarms when exiting a department store, only to find the cashier forgot to remove the security tag? Each of these examples illustrates RFID technology in action. The real question records managers should ask is if they can...
Genetic Records: Who Owns Your DNA?
In the age of information, you need to keep your personal data safe. If you ever feel like you’re handing out personal information every day, you’re probably right. Your phone calls, bank transactions, and email are all logged, after all. Even so, most people are vigilant when it comes to giving out personal information. But what about our DNA? With rapidly advancing technology that can reveal so much about our biological origins (paired with natural human curiosity), many of us are quick to submit our DNA to mainstream services such as Ancestry or 23andme. Nevertheless, how often do we think...
