Systematic Literature Review

Outputs and Findings

We have carried out a systematic literature review (SLR) of journal and other literature on electronic records management (ERM) published from 1996 to February 2009.

SLRs aim for a more objective, rigorous approach to reviewing the literature. The objectivity and rigour comes from establishing elements a priori and following a standard process, particularly for assessing the quality of the literature and extracting relevant data.

Selected outputs from the SLR were used to inform the initial questions for our Delphi Studies, as well as to provide practical information to enable action by users of the outputs.

The SLR outputs comprise brief summaries of items from the literature, organised under headings with bibliographic details.

The list of SLR outputs (available through the links below) is as follows:

•  SLR Synthesis – People Aspects
• SLR Synthesis – Process Aspects
• SLR Synthesis – Technology Aspects
• SLR Synthesis – Case Studies
• SLR Synthesis - Critical Success Factors
