Welcome to my Blog!

As time goes along, I hope to add information that both new practitioners and seasoned RIMs will find of value related to best practices in the field of RIM, as well as links to information being developed and discussed relevant to the field of practice.

Over the past 5-10 years, RIM is becoming a filed that business is becoming more interested in, primarily due to the increasing volume of information assets in both paper and electronic forms. There is also an increased interest due to the numerous rules and regulations related to managing information organizations are required to comply with.

Many see these changes in regulations as a burden, but others see them as an opportunity to improve on the methods for managing information more effectively, especially that information which meets the definition of "record" for their organizations.

I encourage all visitors to peruse the links to resources provided, and to ask questions on RIM related topics for discussion.
