The Museum of London Regional Programmes department is pleased to offer Free records management consultancies for London museums The Renaissance London Information and Records Management Project has been working with the former London Hub museums, and the Museum Development Officers, to support museums to improve their information and records management. For more information on the project, see www.museuminfo-records.org.uk <http://www.museuminfo-records.org.uk/> . Records management is a set of tools and guidelines that ensure you know what records you have and where they are located; what records to keep and how long to keep them; how to properly protect the information the records contain; and how to dispose of records when you no longer need them. All of these practices underpin the full range of activities museums undertake. This year, the project has continued funding to provide records management consultancies to London museums, to enable them to improve their record keeping practices. Feedback on the 14 consultancies provided during 2009 to 2011 has been very positive. We will provide up to 8 consultancies over 2011/12, and are currently accepting applications from museums for consultancies to be delivered between October 2011 and February 2012. Each consultancy will comprise of at least one on-site advisory visit and will be followed up by advice and guidance for at least one calendar month. Each consultancy should have a clear output - for example, museums might ask for help with drafting records management policies, developing staff roles to include records management, creating a records management strategy, or developing in-house training on records management. The application form and further information is available at: http://www.collectionslink.org.uk/discover/manage-information , or from Samira Teuteberg, Records Management Advisor - [log in to unmask] The deadline for applications is 5pm, 30th September 2011 Samira Teuteberg Hub Records Management Advisor, Information Resources Section Museum of London 150 London Wall London.
