Campus Case Studies

CAMPUS CASE STUDIES are reports by university archivists who have created working solutions for a wide range of topics including managing born-digital records, collaborations with institutional repositories, and developing records management policies for an institution. Through this SAA portal, quick and broad dissemination of completed projects or work-in-progress is possible. Archivists are encouraged to report on projects that proved successful and/or problematic through a submission system intended for ease of use with a minimum of editorial delay. See How to Submit a Campus Case Study.
