Book excerpt: Building on their 1995 groundbreaking book on electronic records retention, David Stephens and Roderick Wallace have authored a comprehensive new book that defines a practical methodology for applying the principles of records retention to computer-based recordkeeping environments. The book also addresses the implications of the international records management standard, the first-ever global standard on records management, which endorsed the concept of records retention as a best practice for managing the life cycle of information (ISO 15489-1); the U.S. Department of Defense standard prescribing requirements pertaining to records management software applications (DoD 5015.2-STD,); and the U.S. Internal Revenue Services-issued Revenue Procedure 98-25, which imposes certain long-term data retention requirements on corporate taxpayers.
