Where can I go for advice about records management and archives?
HARG provides a forum to discuss issues concerning health archives and records management, rather than an advisory service as such. However, the Group will always attempt to help with any queries members might have and, where appropriate, messages requesting advice may be posted on the e-mail distribution list. There are a number of other sources of potential advice, and particular mention should be made of The National Archives (TNA), which has statutory responsibilities for oversight of the management of Public Records (which include records of the NHS) in England and Wales and ensuring the safe keeping of those which have been selected as archives, as well as for providing general advice to all archives repositories throughout the United Kingdom. A considerable amount of information is available on their website, including the TNA functional requirements for electronic records management systems and guidance for public authorities on evaluating records management.
