Comperative Analysis of the Records Management Practices at Hacettepe, British Columbia and Simon Fraser Universities

Abstract

Basic aim of this study is to compare the practices of the records processes in the universities between Canada and Turkey, which may then be used to develop records management programs for Hacettepe University. The administrative condition of the records management practices in Turkish universities has been evaluated on the illustrative example of Hacettepe University Beytepe Campus. Furthermore, as an international example, necessary information about records and archival practices has been gathered from the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University, in order to prepare a basis for comparison with that of the Hacettepe University.
