The primary responsibility of the Records Management Department is to ensure that vital information to meet the University's operational, legal and regulatory needs is retained and disposed of according to generally accepted recordkeeping principles. University Records Management also helps departments with administrative records and information management needs by:

• Maintaining the authorized Records Retention Schedule for the University of Denver.
• Providing guidelines and information about proven methods for filing, storing and protecting information, which can be tailored to departmental needs.
• Conducting (in partnership with the department) records reviews to assess administrative records and information needs for disposition-which may include long-term storage, archival transfer or destruction.
