Matt has incorporated comments from the Born Digital CKG into the Statement. Review and discuss. Next Steps?
Incorporated feedback of adding the ask for policy in the introduction and recommendation of stakeholders in the conclusion
Marlayna: it may be helpful to mention stakeholders earlier in the document
Teresa: had we previously identified campus IT as a stakeholder?
Matt: they were added after the feedback from RMC
Teresa: should they be involved in the policy drafting stage?
Kevin: policy should be technology agnostic - involving campus IT may deter direction
Marlayna: what about administrative involvement? ultimate goal is how do we get this policy established and endorsed?
Teresa: Has this gone up to the Digital Preservation Leadership Group? Should that be the next step?
Action: Elvia will present this Email Records Statement document to the Digital Preservation Leadership Group and ask if they are interested in drafting a letter of feedback and support
