Electronic Records Management
Focuses on the use of theory in practice and the subsequent influence of
practice on the development of theory. This is achieved through research which
examines the use, evaluation and impact of concepts, models and frameworks,
policy, standards, guidelines and other tools to inform best practice and
professional development and, hence, evolution of records management as a
discipline. Outcomes include survey results, trends, themes, opinions and case
studies/case examples. This scope provides a unique niche area within records
management research and one which not only feeds into teaching, consultancy and
training opportunities but provides opportunities for projects which require
the knowledge and skills which come from partnerships with computing and
information systems staff within the School.
