Defensible disposition addresses the problem of over-retention -- organizations have been over-retaining electronic information and failing to dispose of it in a legally defensible manner when business and law will allow. The best way to address this monster problem is to break it into more tractable sub-problems: day-forward information disposition and historical informational disposition. I won’t go into a day-forward information disposition here, because it is an easier problem to solve. Let’s stipulate that it’s taken care of and focus on historical information disposition.

I recently did a webinar with Sue Trombley from Iron Mountain on the impact of the Obama Administration's records management initiative -- not just on the federal government, but on records management in general. The webinar was so much fun; I thought I would follow it up with a short series of questions with Sue. Here's the interview.

The AIIM Community offers a space for members of our community to share the information management best practices they've learned from experience on the job. These blog articles provide valuable insights. I was looking through the most popular blog posts for July and thought I would share my top ten here. The rules for qualifying: If you had more than one post in the top 10, I only took the top one. I only counted posts that were done in 2012. So congratulations to all of the following bloggers (and thanks for being involved in AIIM). And the envelope, please....

Myth # 1. Records Management starts when the boxes of files go offsite. Reality: Records Management is a discipline that starts when a record – paper or electronic – is actually created. By waiting until a record is no longer active to begin tracking its movement and access, companies are missing an opportunity to make the record accessible, authentic, and reliable. These characteristics of a record are required by the courts and government auditors. So if you don’t recognize this early on, you face a “pay me now or pay me later” scenario if your company becomes involved in litigation and has to gather responsive materials. In “pay me now,” you take the necessary time to manage records correctly throughout their lifecycle. In “pay me later,” you spend significantly more time and expense gathering case-related materials with a greatly increased risk of incurring penalties and sanctions.
