Marlayna Christensen

The RMC has a monthly call that Marlayna attends as UCAC Chair. We discussed the possibility of a joint RMC-UCAC meeting in San Francisco on January 25, 2017. There are many questions that affect both groups regarding access to and preservation of research data, especially medical data.

  • Marlayna will ask Laurie Sletton to invite UCAC as a group to attend.
  • Polina will share a UCSF flow chart and a link to a presentation by Katie Fortney on the ownership of research data.
  • UCAC should draft an agenda for the meeting by October 14 to help secure campus funding for members to attend.
  • Marlayna will share the minutes of the RMC calls.

Discussion Topics

  
20minArchiving email campus offices

No campuses at this time have developed procedures for archiving email. Some campus records managers are collecting Chancellor's correspondence. This may be another topic for a joint RMC-UCAC meeting. There are currently no procedures to transfer email to the University Archives. Currently no UCAC member has access to campus content management systems.

  • UCB – not archiving administrative email; most email is part of faculty papers that are considered to be manuscript collections.
  • UCD – in early stages of investigation; interest by Chancellor and Provost in library developing a solution.
