ABSTRACT

With the increasing number of business email, there is a growing need to manage email records. Before the development of email records management measures, this study aimed to investigate the status of email records management in universities and determine employees‘ perceptions of email records management. Surveys and interviews were conducted with professors, staff, and assistants who use groupware accounts at D University, and their overall perceptions of email records management and the status of email record management, such as email production, deletion, archival, and backup of university members were gathered. A total of 185 people responded to the survey, and 12 of them were interviewed. According to the analysis, the public utilization of email was frequent, and the management of emails, such as backup and retention, was not performed well compared to deletion and storage. In addition, email is still perceived as private, and users recognize the need for email records management, but they still perceive that they are responsible for records management. The results of this study will be useful in setting the policy for email records management of universities and will help provide email record management awareness.
