Get ready to focus on the skills that administrators and managers—those archivists with oversight over their department or the entire archival enterprise of their institution—need to incorporate electronic records management into their archives and special collections. We will discuss both the administrative and technical needs to successfully manage archived electronic records allowing you to make thoughtful and convincing arguments to staff and superiors grounded in knowing what it takes.
