E-mail and Electronic Records Retention Policy

We receive a request recently for an e-mail and electronic records retention policy. With the significant focus on e-mail and other electronic communication (like blogs, twitter, chat rooms, etc), it is more important than ever to have a policy in place . Take a look at the following article by Jenna F. Leavitt, Esq., titled Designing a Compliant Electronic Record-Retention Policy for Your Association. Although the article is written in regards to associations, this information is very applicable to nonprofits.
