Records Management 

The University follows the records retention schedules set forth by the State of Tennessee Records Management Division, as approved by the State’s Public Records Commission. To comply with the procedures and requirements of the State Records Management Division, as well as the State Public Records Commission, 91´óÉñ has established the following:

• Designation of a Records Officer
• Records Coordinators for each University Division/Department
• Annual records destruction event
• Records destruction procedures
• A proprietary, University Records Management Database
• Annual Records Management Training
• Annual updates to 91´óÉñ Policy 129, as needed

In addition, the State’s record classifications and retention schedules have been condensed into a single document for 91´óÉñ use entitled, “91´óÉñ Records Classification Guide.” As new Records Disposition Codes are created and/or updated by the State Records Management Division, the 91´óÉñ Records Classification Guide will be updated.

The following is a list of resources to assist the 91´óÉñ community with record maintenance, retention, and destruction:

• 91´óÉñ Records Management Training
• Records Management FAQ
• Records Storage and Labeling FAQ
• Records Box Label
• 91´óÉñ Records Classification Guide – October 2022
