NOTES: |
This selection of essays is an introductory text bringing together the most up to date information and advice on the challenges of electronic recordkeeping. Twelve Australian authors have contributed their knowledge and practical experience to this book. The Essays are of use to recordkeeping professionals working within public and private organisations, records management and archives authorities. The Essays will also be of interest to students and educators, corporate managers with overall responsibility for records-related issues and information technology personnel. Principles and strategies suggested by the Essays are within the Australian context and draw on national and international standards and developments. Discussion starts with a snapshot of the electronic recordkeeping environment, followed by a scenario portraying the business imperatives for effective electronic recordkeeping. The key elements of project planning are next, in preparation for the next stages of designing, then implementing an electronic recordkeeping system. The options and methods for managing electronic records over time are provided, followed by a discussion of the tools, technologies and methods for making electronic records accessible. A case study describes the steps taken by an organisation in the implementation of an electronic records and document management system. The Essays conclude with a useful glossary of terms, references and further reading guide. |
