Once a record has reached its required retention date, please request authorization of destruction and document your actions by completing a Document Destruction Form, having it endorsed by your Department Head, and submitting it to the Records Manager.

Records that do not contain Personal Information can be recycled or otherwise disposed of in your office. For records that contain Personal Information, please contact the Records Manager to arrange for secure onsite or offsite destruction. In both cases, the Records Manager will permanently maintain the Document Destruction Form in the University Archives
