Records of temporary usefulness that are not an integral part of a records series of the University, that are not regularly filed within the University's record keeping system, and that are required only for a limited period of time for the completion of an action by an official or employee of the University or in the preparation of an ongoing records series. Transitory records are not essential to the fulfillment of statutory obligations or to the documentation of University functions. Some examples of transitory information, which can be in any medium (voice mail, fax, email, hard copy, etc.) are routine messages; telephone message notifications; internal meeting notices; routing slips; incoming letters or memoranda of transmittal that add nothing of substance to enclosures; and similar routine information used for communication, but not for the documentation, of a specific University transaction.
