Free Records Management Consultancies
Do you face large backlogs of paper or email records? Not sure what to
keep and what to throw away? The London Museums Hub Records Management
Project provides a range of different initiatives to develop museum
capacity in this area. It currently has funding to provide up to 8
museums with a short consultancy over 2010/11. Feedback on the six
consultancies provided over 2009/10 has been very positive.
Each consultancy will last about two (non-consecutive) on-site days, and
should have a clear output. For example, you can ask for help with:
* writing records management policies
* developing staff roles to include records management
* creating records management strategies
* developing in-house training on records management.
Additionally the consultancy will reimburse your museum for appropriate
furniture or equipment, such as shredders and lockable filing cabinets,
depending on the needs of the individual museum.
We are currently accepting applications from museums for consultancies
to be held between July 2010 and February 2011. Interested museums
should fill out the short application form, explaining what you need the
consultant for, and what the outcomes of the consultancy will be.
We are looking for applications that specify clear outcomes from the
consultancy to make a real difference, so please be specific about what
areas you want support in, and how the consultancy will help you.
See further information on award criteria on page 4 of the application
form.
