State Records Management Manual

The Records Management Section of the Library and Archives Division of the Kansas Historical Society developed the Kansas State Records Management Manual to encourage effective and efficient management of state government records. The manual's purpose is to provide state agencies with a convenient source of information on records management policies, procedures, practices, and services.

Kansas Statutes Annotated and Kansas Administrative Regulations describe the responsibilities of the state records board, state agencies, records officers, the state records center, and the state archives in managing the state's records. The Records Management Manual includes detailed discussions of these responsibilities as well as the text of relevant statutes and administrative regulations.

The manual was created in 1995, and subsequent revisions to the records management and the law, records schedules, and electronic records guidelines are NOT all included. View the latest versions of these online.
