Records and information management / Patricia C. Franks.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

"Records and Information Management was the first book to provide a lifecycle view of records management that includes both paper and electronic records and information and addresses the impact of Web 2.0 and records management technologies. The increasingly complex regulatory and legal environment, along with the growing volume and changing nature of records and information created through emerging technologies, continues to bring RIM to the attention of executives who are ultimately responsible for the success or failure of their organizations. The positive reaction by academics and practitioners to the first edition, the continued interest in records and information management (RIM), and the reliance in the field upon emerging technologies supports the need for a second edition. Proposed revisions will bring readers up-to-date on advances in technology, most notably cloud storage, and evolving standards and practices"-- Provided by publisher

As Information Management put it, "On the strength of its currency and coverage alone, Franks' book is poised to take over as the recommended go-to reference for both students and RIM professionals for many years to come." The new second edition cements this work's status as an up-to-date classic, its content updated and expanded to address emerging technologies, most notably blockchain, and evolving standards and practices. Inside, Franks presents complete coverage of the records and information lifecycle model, encompassing paper, electronic (databases, office suites, email), and new media records (blogs, chat messages, and software as a service). Informed by an advisory board of experts in the field and with contributions by noted authorities, the text addresses such key topics as the origins and development of records and information; the discipline of information governance and developing a strategic records management plan; creation/capture and classification; retention strategies, inactive records management, archives, and long-term preservation; access, storage, and retrieval; electronic records and electronic records management systems; the latest on rapidly evolving technologies such as web records, social media, and mobile devices; vital records, disaster preparedness and recovery, and business continuity; monitoring, auditing, and risk management; and education and training. This book's authoritative blend of theory and practice makes it a matchless resource for everyone in the archives and records management field. Instructor/trainer extras include a set of ready-to-go, customizable PowerPoint slides to accompany the text
