Pennsylvania Electronic Records Retention
Retention Electronic records are subject to the same retention requirements as paper records and are governed by records retention schedules developed by the Records Management Unit in cooperation with individual City departments. (For more on Records Retention Schedules see Procedural Guide to Records Management in the City of Philadelphia). An important consideration is the relationship of electronic records to the paper documents produced from them and the need to coordinate retention for both paper and electronic versions.
See the full Philadelphia electronic records management manual.
