UMBC Records Management
The University Archives are developed in partnership with the UMBC Records Retention Schedule. This schedule is intended to set in place a campus wide system that will ensure the permanent retention of the important records of the University, and the timely destruction of those records for which the legal requirements have been met. The schedule will assist departments and offices in knowing which documents to preserve for their continuing value in providing evidence of the functions, operations, and activities of the institution and what to destroy thereby supporting the important work of preserving the strategic body of documents necessary for the continuity of this institution's history and the maintenance of its identity.
