Welcome to Media Monday! Each week we share a recent article, story, or update from the world of archives, records management, and information governance. The goal is to keep you informed about trends, challenges, and innovations shaping the field and to help you connect what you’re learning in the MARA program with real-world developments.

NARA has announced proposed revisions to multiple General Records Schedules (GRS), including updates to digitization standards and records maintenance. The agency is inviting public comments until Nov. 12, 2025. This process reflects the collaborative nature of records management policy and offers professionals and students the chance to contribute their voices to national standards.
