Social Media and Public Records: Are you Compliant?

On April 26, ArchiveSocial’s Marcus Smith, digital compliance expert, discussed how government communications have changed in the age of social media and the implications of those changes. Official statements to television and print journalists used to be commonplace for government agencies. Now information is often shared directly with the public through social media.

Though these communications may seem less formal, they are still public records and subject to public records laws. Watch the full webinar to learn more about:

• Why you can’t rely on social media platforms to retain your communications
• What social media archiving tools can do for your agencies and what to look for when evaluating tools
• How the inability to produce complete and accurate social media records can hurt your agency
