In our environment today, virtually all organizations, regardless of size, possess and manage a legacy of records and information, accumulate a rapidly growing store of records/information, and anticipate a future that is mostly, but not entirely, electronic. It’s estimated that more than 90% of the records/information being created today are electronic. Coupled with the overwhelming growth of electronic messages – most notably e-mail and instant messaging – the management of records/information has become a critical business and social issue. How that information is managed has significant business, legal, and technology ramifications. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter what medium is used to create, deliver, or store records/information when determining if content is a record and should be managed accordingly. However, individuals and organizations also produce a vast range of important records/information – such as letters, reports, emails, marketing materials, studies, engineering drawings, handwritten consultation notes, and committee minutes – all of which constitutes an organization’s memory of its processes and procedures, and its knowledgebase of its expertise, experience, and specializations. Records and Information Management Awareness Foundation (RIMA Foundation) brings together knowledge and creating awareness about information management and security to improve the information
management/security awareness globally thereby promoting transparency and accountability in both public and private organisations. For many organizations and individuals, records/information will continue to be important for as far ahead as they can see even though they will rely increasingly on knowledge management technology.
