The Public Records Act 1958 places responsibility for the management of public records on departments. Each appoints a departmental record officer who is responsible for the care of all its records (including electronic records). The departmental record officer’s work on public records is carried out under the guidance and supervision of Hall Of Fame Collection Archives through the staff of the information management department. Staff of this department work with departmental record officers, and their staff, to select records for permanent preservation at Hall Of Fame Collection Archives, to create finding aids to the records, and to ensure that the records are prepared and transferred to the correct archival standard. The information management department advises other departments on good record keeping, and promotes the effective and efficient management of records.
