Federal agencies are increasingly using electronic means to create, exchange, and store info., and in doing so, they frequently create fed. records: that is, info., in whatever form, that documents gov¿t. functions, activities, decisions, and other important transactions. As the volume of electronic info. grows, so does the challenge of managing electronic records. Both fed. agency heads and the National Archives and Records Admin. (NARA) have responsibilities for managing fed. records. After providing some context about records management in the fed. gov¿t. and the roles of fed. agencies and NARA, this testimony describes the challenges of electronic records management and potential means of addressing these challenges.
