What is Records Management?
Records Management (RM) means the application of systematic control to the creation, use, maintenance, storage, retrieval, disposition, and preservation of all forms of recorded information produced by the university in the conduct of its operations. Its key concerns include accountability, transparency, integrity, protection, compliance, availability, retention and disposition.
Vision
Records management at UVic will be simple, consistent, and clear, and integrated with privacy, information security, systems development and office workflows.
Mission
The mission of Records Management is to assist university offices by providing timely advice and up-to-date and user-friendly policies, procedures, and information resources. The program is seamlessly linked to the Archival program for the retention of both paper and digital institutional records.
