Records Management at the TUC: Challenge and Change

Abstract

A recent editorial in this journal highlighted an emerging problem for records managers. Traditionally, registries were regarded as dumping grounds for the unwanted and out of date records of organisations. Records managers and supervisors could be safely left to get on with the tedious and painstaking tasks of cataloguing, weeding, filing etc. material that everyone else had long ago finished with. Those at the sharp end of the organisation were too concerned with today's issues and anticipating those of tomorrow to worry about the records of yesterday.
