The
Chancellor's Communications and Resource Center (CCRC) is part of the
Chancellor's Immediate Office within the Office of the Chancellor.
The unit was established in 1952 with the appointment of Berkeley's first Chancellor, Clark Kerr
and is responsible for the implementation of a life cycle program of
archives records management and workflow integration within the
Chancellor's Immediate Office and senior administration.
Utilizing
both traditional record-keeping formats and emerging communications
technology, CCRC staff performs a variety of professional duties in the
areas of information resource management, records systems analysis, archival
appraisal strategies, website development and electronic access, and
support of campuswide information users.
CCRC
serves as an information source on current and historical topics and acts
as records management advisor to campus units. The goal is to coordinate
access to authentic organizational records while ensuring their security
and their intellectual and physical integrity.
The
Center's staff reviews thousands of documents annually to determine the
retention value. The documents are cataloged and the document information
is entered into a client-server database and tracking system, CCRC Tracker.
In January 1999, CCRC introduced the
CCRC Tracker electronic document management and workflow system within the
Chancellor's Office. CCRC Tracker allows multiple users access to
documents, helping eliminate callbacks and other service delays.
Where previously paper documents could be difficult to locate and in
the possession of just one user at a time, CCRC Tracker allows multiple
viewing of a single document for information and/ or action. CCRC
staff currently support 15 Tracker client users and over 100 e-Tracker
web-end users. eTracker can only be accessed with proper CalNet
Authentication from this website:

CCRC serves as the functional owner
and operating systems administrator for the CALmessages system.
CALmessages is the campus' Web-based broadcast messaging system, providing
email notifications to faculty and staff for official campus
communications. CALmessages also provides subscription list functionality,
allowing the creation of departmental or program subscription lists that
are distributed via CALmessages. These lists are automatically maintained
and updated by the CALmessages system. Additional information
regarding the Calmessages system can be found at https://calmessages.berkeley.edu.
Questions regarding the use of CALmessages can be sent to CALmessages@berkeley.edu or call
Cindy Major, CALmessages Operating
Systems Administrator at 510-642-3115.
CCRC
is also responsible for the coordination and maintenance of the Campus Delegations of Authority
. Delegations of Authority follow campus organizational lines and
functional responsibility. CCRC conducts ongoing reviews to determine
if a delegation change must be made to appropriate officers in support of
their function. Also, as new delegations are issued from The Regents
on an ongoing basis, CCRC redelegates the authorities given to the
Chancellor by the President when applicable.
CCRC
serves as the campus contact for both the UC Records Management Disposition
and the UC Business and Finance Bulletins. Records disposition refers
to the destruction or systemic transfer to archival storage of records no
longer needed for everyday operations. CCRC provides guidance to all Berkeley campus
departments and offices in administering the retention or disposition of
their records. Business and Finance Bulletins contain policies and
guidelines on a variety of business and financial concerns that are uniform
throughout the University system. Delegations are issued by the
Office of the Senior Vice President - Business and Finance and when
permitted, CCRC redelegates this authority through a campus-generated
Delegation of Authority letter.
