Summarize the stages of the records life cycle. Include a diagram that shows the records life cycle. From the example you chose earlier, explain what the document is and describe each step of the records life cycle for your document.

Online or within your Records Management textbook (Chapter 2), research Generally Accepted Recordkeeping Principles (GARP). What purpose do these principles serve? Name and define the principles.

Within a Word document, summarize your research. Refer to the Business Programs Handbook for correct formatting.
