Directory of Information Stewards | University Records Management

The University's information stewards are the senior administrators with overall responsibility for a functional area of University administration (e.g., finance, human resources), who therefore also have overall responsibility for the University records created and used in these areas of administration.

Each WatClass records retention schedule lists the information stewards for the information within its scope.

Information stewards provide strategic oversight of information/records management and compliance with Policy 46 – Information Management. Operational information management & decision-making are the responsibility of the University's information custodians. The roles and responsibilities of information stewards, information custodians, information users, and information service providers are defined in Policy 46.
