Records Management Network

About the RMN

The Records Management Network (RMN) is a forum event for those who have an interest, or role in records and information management at the University of Melbourne.

The group meets to discuss University records and related topics including privacy, data management, disaster preparedness, expert advice on the use of Records Managed SharePoint & Content Manager, information management and current best practice methodologies.

When is the next RMN?

RMN forums are held at least once per year.

University staff on the RMN mailing list will be sent an invitation to register to attend the forum event.
