FETCH THE FUTURE: RETHINK THE INK

It has been said the pandemic was an accelerator of change that was ready to happen. Covid and working remotely has taught us that, for our organizations to continue to be nimble and efficient, sustainable and resilient, we finally need to move from paper-based processes and workflows to completely digital environments.

This session will focus on how Records Management Services is moving the University of Washington toward a paperless future through an initiative called Fetch the Future: Rethink the Ink.

Please join the Greater Seattle Chapter of ARMA as we welcome Barbara Benson.

Since 1992 Barbara Benson has been the University Records Officer and Director of the University of Washington Records Management program.

Ms. Benson received a graduate degree in History/Archival and Records Management from New York University. She has worked as either Archivist or Records Manager in such diverse arenas as not-for-profits, banking, city government, state government, and higher education.

Ms. Benson is a frequent speaker at ARMA (Association of Records Managers and Administrators) conferences and meetings, at the Northwest Clerks Institute, and for other organizations and institutions interested in managing data and information.
