An Archival record has no lifespan value attached to it and the record in whole or in part can be destroyed when the expertise of a professional archivist deems it appropriate. C = Current Year Current year represents the calendar year that a record has been created. The retention period of a record created in the current year does not begin until January of the next year (Le. a 2008 file does not commence its retention period until January 2009). P = Permanent retention Permanent records are considered to be so valuable or unique in documenting the history of an organization that they are preserved indefinitely. Permanent records tend to derive their value primarily from legal or legislative-based value. S = Superseded Superseded records are kept for an indefinite period until it is replaced by an updated record and then discarded. Most records of this nature tend to be used for reference purposes. T = Termination of Event Records that, as a part of the retention process, have a retention period calculated from the conclusion, or termination, of an action or event. *The Records Retention Schedule will be reviewed every 5 years.
