The meeting will attempt to explore the newly redefined roles of governments in record keeping, paying particular attention to the blending of lines between traditional federal, state, and local jurisdictions. By making such information about the meeting available prior to the meeting, the Program committee is hopeful that meeting attendees will arrive at the meeting with a broader understanding of the issues to be presented.
Plenary sessions speak to theme.
Commentators from state and federal programs will also offer insight. Keynote address by Bob Behn. The keynote address will be given by Robert Behn of Duke University and Governing Magazine. Behn is a professor of government and public policy with the Terry Sanford Center at Duke University and has worked with numerous governments. He is also a regular columnist in Governing magazine.
