Colleagues
Great to see the new version of ISO 15489 is being discussed by the professional community. Wish I could join in!
The name of the event is interesting in that it gets at an important question that many of us have been grappling with: are standards, as we have known them, what we need for today's recordkeeping? The new ISO 15489 was written very much with the changed nature of recordkeeping in the digital world in mind, and the need to apply our controls in very dynamic and, increasingly, non-document based environments. So rather than supplying a prescriptive set of rules, it describes the main elements needed for the successful creation, capture and management of records over time, but leaving flexibility in how to construct & deploy these elements in different ways. Here's a short interview I did with ISO on this theme: http://www.iso.org/iso/home/news_index/news_archive/news.htm?refid=Ref2072
If anyone on the list would like more information on what's in the Standard, or copies of presentations made to date on it, please do feel free to get in touch.
All the best for the roundtable,
