The objective of this event is to disseminate the findings of the University of Glasgow's Effective Records Management project.

The objective of this one day workshop is to identify the issues concerned with adding value to digital documents produced to support the administration of Universities, such as committee agendae, minutes and reports. The development of the day is intended to be progressive, identifying the problem, outlining some important underlying ideas, moving on to how these can relate to the environment within which people actually work and finally giving the participants the opportunity for wide-ranging discussion.
This ERM project is based within the University of Glasgow Archives and Business Records Centre and is funded by the JISC Technology Applications Programme (JTAP).
