common records schedule

The Common Records Schedule (CRS) is designed to assist units in ensuring that their university records are organized and maintained for operational and administrative effectiveness, and that they are disposed of appropriately.

The Common Records Schedule includes the Records Classification System, a framework for organizing records in paper and electronic formats in university offices.
