2023 Mass History Conference

In addition to museums, repositories with historical records can include Town Clerk’s offices, public libraries, and historical commissions. Records management is the business end of information management, and is important to telling the story of an institution. Records provide both evidential value and informational value. Proper management of these records facilitates the retrieval of information. Knowing when to keep these records, and when they are not needed, is the essential role of records management policies. Join Archivist Dan McCormack for a hands-on workshop to learn more about your institution’s records management, and how to ensure you’re using the strategies that best fit your organization.
