ISO/TC 46/SC 11 Work Group 8 has published an updated standard, ISO 30300:2020(en) Information and documentation — Records management — Core concepts and vocabulary. Originally, the standard was developed in 2011 and has been revised to address the growing body of work encompassed by the Committee. This document is now the authoritative source for definitions for all products of SC 11.
The standard is intended to provide ISO/TC 46/SC 11 standards developers with the most relevant definitions related to the concepts used in the records management domain. It is also expected that this document will be used by standards users and any interested party to clearly understand records management concepts represented by consistent terms and definitions.
The terms and definitions in this document are based on the concept system of ISO 30300:2011 with new concepts added from ISO 15489-1. This document is also the vocabulary standard for the ISO series Management Systems for Records.
