Topic: Open Source Tools for Records Management
The featured speaker will be Beth Cron, Senior Records Policy Analyst at the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) and a member of the Records Management Policy Section of the Office of the Chief Records Officer for the U.S. Government.
To start this discussion, NARA compiled a selection of open source tools that could be used for various records management functions. The list is a “snapshot” of available tools as of October 2014. During the webinar, Beth Cron will discuss the report and provide an opportunity for participants to share their experiences with the tools.
