May 2024 – Service Project!

This month for our annual service activity, we will assist in sorting Weber County property tax records at the State Archives. Weber County recently digitized their property tax files, resulting in over 500 boxes of paper records being sent to the State Archives. Unfortunately, the records were not organized after digitization, leaving the Archives with a significant task of sorting and organizing them. Enter our chapter! We will be helping to organize these records, while socializing and enjoying working together! Additionally, tours of the State Archives will be available for those interested in exploring this fascinating facility. Hope to see you there!

When: Thursday, May 16, 2024; 11:30am -1pm

Where: Utah State Archives (346 S Rio Grande Street, Salt Lake City, UT 84101) (Map)

April 2024 – Mark Diamond with Contoural

Mark Diamond from Contoural will be joining us this month to discuss best practices for creating or modifying a retention schedule in an age of predominantly electronic records. He will also discuss how to “privacy-enable” our schedules. Come ready with questions and an open mind! Many thanks to Contoural for sponsoring our lunch this month!

What will Mark be presenting?Creating a Modern, Compliant, and Easier to Execute Records Retention Schedule” Many record retention schedules started from within hardcopy, paper-based records programs. Yet today more than 95% of the documents organizations create or receive are sourced in digital format. Programs based on paper-centric record retention schedules are much more difficult to execute and ensure compliance, when electronic information is the dominant format. Is your retention schedule in need of an update? In this webinar, Contoural will discuss how organizations can create modern and more compliant records retention schedules that better handle both paper and especially electronic information. Contoural will also cover how to privacy-enable your schedule.
