Retention Schedules Retention Schedules Retention schedules list the time frame that records need to exist before they can be destroyed or should be transferred to the State Archives permanently. General schedules identify records which are commonly found in various types of state and local government entities. Agencies may contact their analyst for further information.
Some general schedules are for the use of individual agencies only.
These retention schedules, called Retention and Classification Reports, are those which are in the Archives' APPX database.
