Purpose
The Andrews University Archives serves two distinct purposes:
1. Assist University personnel in the organization and management of office records during the full course of a records life cycle. This records management function helps University offices maintain well-organized active, or current, files, provide guidance for management and/or transfer of appropriate inactive, or non-current, University records to the Archives, and guides in the destruction of records that are no longer needed.
2. Collect and preserve the records of the University including those generated by administrative and academic offices, University-wide committees, campus organizations, and various other entities for historical purposes.
