"Athena, located online provides researchers, records managers, and any member of the public access to records retention schedules created by California state agencies since 1990. The impetus for the development of Athena by the State Archives was three-fold. First, Athena allows greater transparency to the state records management process by providing the public access to information regarding how long agency records will be retained and what record series will eventually be transferred to the Archives. Second, the database allows the Archives’ State Records Appraisal Program (SRAP) staff to monitor and track “flagged” records series as part of the initial appraisal process. Third, the retention schedule images, downloadable in PDF format, allow state agency record managers access to their legacy schedules. In addition, agency record managers can use the online database to find examples of retention schedules created by other state agencies." - Dhiraj Gupta
