The Records Management Tips are written for Records Coordinators and employees who have records management responsibilities. Each month we put out a new Tip on a different records management topic. Tips provide advice and procedural information. They are designed to help GNWT departments and agencies set up and manage their records management programs.

The tips are in PDF format. Click on the title to open a tip.
