Sedona Conference Publishes 2nd Edition of its Primer On Social Media

February 19, 2019

The Sedona Conference and its Working Group on Electronic Document Retention & Production (WG1) recently announced the publication of The Sedona Conference Primer on Social Media, Second Edition. The publication is free and may be downloaded here.

The first edition of the Primer on Social Media was published in 2012 and was a useful resource on various information governance and litigation issues, as it established a practical approach for addressing the corporate use and management of social media. Since 2012, however, there has been a proliferation of new messaging technologies and business applications, in addition to major evolution in “traditional” social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

There have also been significant developments in the law addressing social media and in the rules of discovery, evidence, and professional responsibility. Therefore, WG1 recognized a compelling need to update the Primer and published the public comment version of this Second Edition in July 2018. The editors carefully considered the comments received during the public comment period and, where appropriate, incorporated them into this final version.

I always love the publication of the final versions of Sedona Conference publications. Amazingly useful resources – and free. Thanks Sedona for another gift to the profession!
