Keeping Web Records
 
I would like to learn more about this - especially using the Local-e system. eg - what are we required to keep and how can we keep them using Council's record keeping systems such as TRIM. We touched on it a bit last year - but would like more information on how to impliment this using the programs we have.

We have indeed been speaking with State Records on a longer term NSW wide approach to this problem, as it's not limited to what CMS you use! State Records are currently coming up with a flowchart to assist in decision making about what needs to be kept, for how long and in what format. We'll be working very closely with them to develop this and then distribute it to everyone. We are also going to be building in this topic as part of the LGWebNetwork wiki so you'll have access to shared resources, assistance and discussions on the topic.
I agree, we use TRIM as records system as well.
We also use TRIM, would be good!
Hi guys, We really nee to focus this topic as it's not about using TRIM or other doc management software, but learning how and what web records need to be kept and by who..so though TRIM and other systems maybe spoken about, it's not really the thrust of the topic
yes can we look at just the record keeping issue and not specifically about the technology?
I agree that the topic of recordkeeping and websites would be a good one to look at -- both from a strategic as well as tactical perspective.

There's lots of misunderstandings about the legislation as well as what is practical and possible today, including archiving, backups, and metadata.

There's not a lot of records managers either who know how to handle electronic documents in a way that doesn't reflect a paper world who can give advice on this topic.

I understand that it's a record-keeping problem not a software problem but it's the practical side that I think is the hardest when it comes to web records. I know what I need to capture; but how do I actually do it in a sustainable automated way? I really hope that this workshop can be practical as well as theory.
