University Records Management
COVID-19 UPDATES
As of MARCH 16TH, 2020, the University Records Management team is working remotely and arranging available series out of the University Records Center as safety and weather allows. The University Records Center has ceased operations during COVID-19 other than records requests. The URM team asks that offices and schools add extra time to the usual records requests to allow for safe retrieval and delivery of their records. At this time, the University Records Center does not anticipate resuming normal services until 2021. University Records Management staff are still available for consultations, questions, and requests for special exceptions by email.

New Software for the University Records Center - Coming Soon!
During the summer and into autumn of 2020, the University Records Management team is diligently working with our new partner, Infolinx, on the migration of data from our current warehouse management software to their implementation team. This new web-based software will allow for more efficient manage of not only the University Records Center, but will enable all of our processes and requests to go online via a client log-in. Staff and faculty who under-go records management training will be able to log-in with single sign-on to request boxes, submit box information to arrange for storage or destruction, and search their office's boxs to request records. We hope to introduce this new software at the start of 2021.
