Due to there being no available staff for the University Records Management program at this time, general services (e.g., intake of boxes, appraisal of files, confidential shredding, etc.) are suspended. Non-routine and emergency requests will be reviewed and attempted. Please contact Lynn Eaton (leaton4@gmu.edu) for further information.
