New ESI and E-Discovery Page Posted at EDUCAUSE Connect

Created by Colleen Luckett (EDUCAUSE) on May 24, 2007

On the newly posted ESI and E-Discovery resource page, resources regarding the December 2006 amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure concerning the discovery portion of the litigation process are now available. Although discovery has included electronic materials for some time, the amendments specifically recognize electronically stored information (ESI) and E-Discovery, the process by which ESI is exchanged during the early stages of litigation.

The resources available were provided by colleges, universities, and other parties interested in helping institutions of higher education formulate their own policies to handle ESI.
