Special RIM Month Program – April 29, 2026 – Strategies for Managing Project Files
April 29 @ 11:00 am – 12:30 pm
Free
Please SAVE THE DATE for a special *hybrid* program for Records & Information Management Month. Note the special date and meeting time. This will also be offered in hybrid format (with both in person and virtual options to attend).
Topic: Strategies for Managing Project Files
Managing project files can feel daunting. How are you supposed to handle all these records that feel like they should have different retention lengths? How do you keep drafts and proposals separate from the final product? How do you dispose of these records when they might be useful in the future? In honor of RIM month, we’ll tackle these (and other!) questions and discuss strategies on how to keep your project files managed.
👤Presenter: Hannah Kolesar, Senior Records Consultant, Washington State Archives

She holds a Master’s of Library and Information Science from Drexel University and a Master’s of Jurisprudence from the University of Washington.
