• Identify yourself; avoid anonymity
• Respond to ideas…not people
• Be respectful; always seek to add value
• If you are not authorized to speak for
the company, specify that opinions
are your own

9. Records Management of Social Media
• Consider where the business record is created:
– If the record is created outside of the social media site,
the copy posted to the social media site could be considered
a “convenience” copy
– If transactional information created on a social media site is a
business record under your policy, then have a mechanism in place
to capture, store, search, and retrieve those records
• Ensure procedures specify that Records Managers review
the social media site framework before the site is launched
– To assess capability for proper handling of business records
• Educate employees through training sessions and communications

use of devices, proper management
and security of information,
segregation of personal and
business data and IT information
management controls.
