Do you need to better manage your records, but don’t know where to start?
Not sure if sample policies will really fit your museum? Perhaps you’ve
drafted a policy, but have doubt as to whether it’s fit for purpose?
Once you have recognised the need
for records management, implementation may seem daunting and it can be tricky
to make a start. This practical half-day workshop gives step-by-step guidance
on how to develop a records management policy that fits your museum. The policy
is a vital tool that helps you to define your objectives and gain the
organisational support you need.
Although this session builds on the
popular Nuts and Bolts of Museum Records
Management workshop, it is not necessary to have attended it; the
session is designed for museum workers already involved in developing records
management in their own institution. If you are in the process of drafting a
policy, please bring it along for discussion. If you don’t already have
one, you will leave the workshop with an outline of your policy.
The workshop will be lead by Samira
Teuteberg, London Museums Hub Records Management Advisor and Charlotte
Brunskill, Archivist and Records Manager at the National Portrait Gallery.
