The increasing prominence of the use of the term information governance (IG) raises fundamental questions about the role and relevance of records management in today’s organisations. As a starting point, this paper aims to explore the relationship between records management and IG by considering both recordkeeping and non-recordkeeping perspectives.,The research discusses literature chiefly from 2013 to the present to shed light on how discussion of the relationship between records management and IG has evolved over the past few years.,A range of perspectives on the relationship between records management and IG was evident and, notably, a lack of direct engagement from the records management community. Taking the positive perspectives that emerged, IG was seen as an opportunity for records management. By contrast, others regarded it as a necessary successor to records management, the latter perceived as too associated with the paper era to be capable of meeting the organisational information needs of today. Equally, others were sceptical about the real difference IG offered, suggesting it was in part a rebranding exercise, which did not necessarily articulate anything fundamentally new.,Defining literature in the broadest sense, this paper offers a high-level review of some of the recent discussions that have taken place in a wide variety of contexts around the relationship between records management and IG. It includes journal articles, books, online discussions from professional forums and listservs, vendor contributions, opinion-pieces and blogs and in particular focuses on presenting a range of viewpoints from individuals operating within various information-related spaces, including records and information management, IG, and information technology. It is hoped that this preliminary research will encourage further engagement on the subject from recordkeeping professionals.

关于记录管理和信息治理之间关系的观点

信息治理（IG）一词的使用越来越受到关注，这引起了有关当今组织中记录管理的作用和相关性的根本问题。本文旨在从记录保存和非记录保存两个角度探讨记录管理和IG之间的关系。本研究主要讨论2013年至今的文献，以阐明记录管理之间的关系。在过去的几年中，IG有了发展。显然，人们对记录管理和IG之间的关系有很多看法，尤其是缺乏记录管理社区的直接参与。从出现的积极观点来看，IG被视为记录管理的机会。相比之下，其他人则认为它是记录管理的必要后继者，后者被认为与纸质时代联系在一起，无法满足当今的组织信息需求。同样，其他人也对IG所提供的真正差异持怀疑态度，这表明它在某种程度上是品牌重塑活动，不一定表明任何根本上的新事物。在广义上定义文献，本文对其中一些最近围绕记录管理和IG之间的关系在各种情况下进行的讨论。它包括期刊文章，书籍，专业论坛和列表服务的在线讨论，供应商的贡献，意见书和博客，尤其着重于介绍在各种与信息相关的空间中工作的个人的各种观点，包括记录和信息管理，IG和信息技术。希望这项初步研究将鼓励记录保存专业人员进一步参与该主题。
