If you are a Mason staff or faculty member seeking a record from the University Records Center:
Email University Records Management with your name, your office, and any available information you have regarding the record you are seeking. You can only request records belonging to your office. If you need a record from another office, please reach out to that office to ask that they put in a records request on your behalf.
Information that will assist with a faster turn around:
- Record or File Name (Subject, Name, G#, etc.)

If you are making a time sensitive request due to an audit or FOIA request, please be sure to indicate the urgency of your request so we can prioritize the retrieval. Record(s) may be retrieved for temporary loan or may be permanently returned to the department of origin. Please let us know if you plan on keeping a retrieved record.
