¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ University Records Retention Schedule (MURRS)

Introduction

The ¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ University Archives is pleased to present the records retention schedule replacing the previous one established in 1998. This schedule is intended to cover all the rules for the preservation of documents affecting all the University's activities.

The revision of the schedule was based on a simplified application of the rules, basing them on the University's current mandates, processes, and activities, ensuring that they can also be applied to any information management system in a digital environment. For example, by linking a retention rule to a process or activity, it now becomes simpler to identify the final disposition of all related documents. In particular, this approach will facilitate its application to the management of digital documents and records.

This new schedule, approved by Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec, is now the reference in terms of managing the life cycle of documents and information, whether digital or paper, for all of the University's activities. In particular, the retention schedule ensures better control and more efficient management of the documents produced and preserved by the University.
