Departmental Records Management

by   |  06.25.12  |  Announcements

In 2009, ACU implemented a records management policy. Primary responsibility for managing the university’s records rests with the department or office  responsible for creating those records. Many of you have turned in your departmental records management schedules to our office. If you have not, please email them to legalservices@acu.edu.

The goal in developing these schedules is to create, preserve, and safeguard university records for valid operational, legal, or historical reasons. Each department is strongly encouraged to appoint a Records Manager to assist in implementation and compliance with this policy. In addition, each department should designate at least one day each year to allow its employees to focus on records management, including reviewing and updating its departmental records management schedule. Please call the Office of Legal Services at ext 2485 if you have any questions.
