Abstract

Managing records, physical or electronic, are now more challenging as the data and information are overloaded in various types of medium. Information professional, records managers and archivist are now facing the tremendous challenges to ensure the proper organization, identification, storage, retrieval, circulation and disposal of records in the organization. The awareness on the importance of managing records in many organizations contributed to the failure of the most records management initiatives. This paper attempted to document tacit experiences in developing records management and filing structure in the higher learning organization with knowledge mapping technique.
