What I do
I help Tufts offices and departments effectively manage University records by providing guidance about records retention, secure and efficient storage, and confidential destruction. I also assist staff and student organizations in identifying inactive records with long-term value to Tufts that should be transferred to the Archives. And I oversee accessioning of new acquisitions, which includes oversight of initial description and processing to facilitate discovery and access by researchers. Please contact me with questions about managing University records or to schedule a consultation. You can also contact me if you would like to donate or transfer records to TARC.
