The link between Records Management and ICT is becoming increasingly evident. it is now time to integrate both professions to mirror the innovations that are increasingly being seen. it is therefore important for information professionals to be in the fore front in bringing  in new innovations that will increase their viability in the job market and become increasingly more relevant. this cannot be done without the implementation of ICT in our day to day activities

Do you think there is a future in records management profession?


This is just one of the questions i keep asking myself every time i am doing my routine duties in this demanding profession. When i decided to pursue this profession, i knew i was going to meet more and more challenges especially those coming directly from other departments who do not appreciate the importance of records management.
even though i have encountered several professional drawbacks, i am still convinced that due to the changes in technology and the continued importance of managing paper records in all organizations coupled with  the increasing awareness to top management about the importance of maintaining proper records for every activity, there is surely a great future for records managers.
it is high time that professionals from every country form a professional organization to help themselves in marketing their profession as well as improving their skills through sharing of ideas.

What do you think, is there a future in records Management?
