EXECUTIVE SUMMARY <br /> ✓ According to G.S. §121-5 and G.S. §132-3, you may only destroy public records with <br /> the consent of the Department of Cultural Resources (DCR). The State Archives of <br /> North Carolina is the division of DCR charged with administering a records <br /> management program. This schedule is the primary way the State Archives of North <br /> Carolina gives its consent. Without approving this schedule, your county is obligated <br /> to obtain the State Archives of North Carolina's permission to destroy any record, no <br /> matter how insignificant. <br /> ✓ Each records series listed on this schedule has specific disposition instructions which <br /> will indicate how long that series must be kept in your offices. In some cases, the <br /> disposition instructions are simply "Retain in office permanently," which means that <br /> those records must be kept in your offices forever. In other cases, the retention <br /> period may be "destroy in office when administrative value ends." Administrative <br /> value is defined as, "the usefulness of records to support ancillary operations and <br /> the routine management of an organization." Your agency must establish and <br /> enforce internal policies by setting minimum retention periods for the records that <br /> the State Archives of North Carolina has scheduled with the disposition instructions, <br /> "destroy when administrative value ends." <br /> ✓ Email is a record as defined by G.S. §121-5 and G.S. §132. It is the content of the <br /> email that is critical when determining the retention period of a particular email, <br /> including attachments, not the media in which the records were created. Email <br /> should be retained in the same manner as its paper counterpart. It is important for <br /> all agency employees and officials to determine the appropriate records series for <br /> specific emails and retain them according to the disposition instructions. <br /> ✓ The State Archives of North Carolina recommends that all county employees and <br /> officials take our online tutorials in order to familiarize themselves with records <br /> management principles and practices. The State Archives of North Carolina's online <br /> tutorials include topics such as records management, utilizing the retention <br /> schedule, email management, and scanning guidelines. <br /> ✓ The State Archives of North Carolina provides microfilming of the minutes of major <br /> decision-making boards and commissions in a county. Once those records are <br /> filmed, we will store the silver negative (original) in our security vault. There is a <br /> nominal fee for filming and duplicating film. Contact the Records Management <br /> Analyst in charge of microfilm coordination for the most current information. <br /> ii <br />
