[Deley, John Paul]

BOARD:

 

I could do lunch either the 15th or the 23rd if anyone wanted to get
together???

 

Also, NAGARA is looking for speakers for the E-Forum down in Austin
Texas first week of April - let me know if you (or any of your
colleagues) have program ideas.

Good morning Board, 

This an FYI - just in case you did not get this announcement...    This
is a good move on the part of NARA.   We were already doing these as
operational procedures/update notes (OUP) in BOP.   I'm glad NARA
formalized its guidance in this area. 

BTW, anyone interested in getting together for our usual
Christmas/Holiday lunch meeting?     I'm only taking off between
Christmas and New Year's so I'm available... 

- Omar

MEMORANDUM TO FEDERAL AGENCY CONTACTS: FAQ about Changes to Previously
Approved Schedule Items 
  
I am pleased to notify you that NARA has issued a new Frequently Asked
Questions (FAQ) document that provides guidance to agencies about the
types of changes that can be made to approved records schedules without
submitting a new Standard Form (SF) 115, Request for Records Disposition
Authority. The FAQ is available on the NARA web site at:
http://www.archives.gov/records-mgmt/faqs/previously-approved-schedule-i
tems-faq.html. 
  
The FAQ formalizes NARA's policies and practices regarding these types
of changes, which are often referred to as "pen-and-ink" changes.  The
FAQ provides guidance for when agencies are required to notify NARA when
making certain changes, and when agencies are required to submit a new
SF 115.  Examples of common "pen-and-ink" changes discussed in the FAQ
include changes to: 
  
*         item titles and descriptions, 
*         instructions for transferring records to a NARA Federal
Records Center or other records storage facility, 
*         accessioning instructions for permanent records, 
*         pre-accessioning instructions for permanent electronic
records, and 
*         numbering or organization of agency disposition manuals. 
  
If you would like additional information regarding this bulletin, please
contact your appraiser who can provide any additional information you
might need.  If you do not know who your assigned appraiser is, you will
find a list of the appraisal and scheduling work group and regional
contacts on the NARA website at
http://www.archives.gov/records-mgmt/appraisal/
