Records Schedule Quality Control Checklist

As a result of lessons learned during a 60 day initiative to reduce the backlog of agency submitted records schedules, NARA's Records Management Services Division (ACNR), created a Quality Control Checklist for Requests for Disposition Authority. The checklist, based on Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), is designed to assist those who review record schedules prior to submission to NARA.

Rachel Ban Tonkin, supervisor of the National Archives and Records Administration's Appraisal Team #1, outlines the points of the Records Schedule Quality Control Checklist.
