The beginning of the year can be a good time to review annual records and make some space for new records in the year to come. Here are some suggestions for annual records to clean-up in the new year!
Annual
Publications
Annual or biennial reports can be transferred to the archives each year. Other publications can be transferred when their reference value ends, but it's good to evaluate these records on an annual basis.
One-Year Retention
Many scheduled records only have a one-year retention. You can easily find these series on the schedule. Simply use CTRL+F and search for the phrase: "1 year".
Transitory Records
Transitory records have little or no long-term value to the University. They can be
reviewed and disposed of on an annual basis. See the retention schedule for examples of these records.
Contact the Archives
Call or email the University Archives with any questions you have about discarding or
transferring records. You can also schedule records training and consultations!
