conduct a literature review (scholarly sources only) on Information Governance. You will determine how researchers have attempted to examine that issue by collecting data (you are not collecting data; just reporting on prior research).
As you read the literature, it will become apparent that there are multiple issues. Select one issue that stands out in the literature and address it. You must end up with at least five scholarly sources on which you will base your paper.

A Closer Look at the Research Paper
A Closer Look at the Methodology
What is an Information System?
An information system (IS) is defined as a collection of hardware, software and other resources that work together to achieve a common goal, service or meet the needs of users. The system may be made up of parts that fit into various configurations: a set of related processes, programs or functions; a set of individual applications; or even isolated parts such as hardware. Each IS has its own mission statement that defines what it does for its users.
Review scholarly literature on information governance, have a clear sense of the role that information governance plays in organizations and the relationships among records, information and knowledge.
Information governance is the management of information and knowledge in an organization. It includes policies, procedures, standards and frameworks that govern how an organization uses information to support its business goals. It also includes practices related to sharing company data with suppliers and customers, as well as safeguarding sensitive data from unauthorized access or misuse by employees or others within an organization.
Information governance has been studied by researchers since the early 1990s when they realized that organizations were not managing their information effectively (Friedman & Henderson).
Provide your own unique evaluation of the literature about how you think information governance influences the management of information in organization(s).
In your own words, describe the importance of information governance in organizations.
In a brief summary, describe how you think information governance influences the management of information in organizations.
Describe several ways in which information governance can be applied to improve the management of information in organizations.
Use evidence from the literature to provide a foundation for conducting a research project on this topic.
You will be able to use the literature to provide a foundation for conducting a research project on this topic.
Use scholarly sources only.
Use credible sources.
Use multiple sources, including reliable ones, current ones and authoritative ones (such as those published in peer-reviewed journals).
A variety of types of data are available from different sources; for example, you might want to consider combining data from multiple databases or government reports into one spreadsheet so that you can compare them side by side with each other and draw conclusions about how they relate together as part of an overall picture of information governance practices at work within your organization—and indeed all organizations throughout society today!
When formulating your thesis statement motivate why you think information governance is important for organizations (you may mention various reasons, e.g., it is required by law, it contributes to better decision making etc.)
The thesis statement is often called the “title” of your paper. It should be clear and concise, but it also needs to support your argument.
For example: To determine how researchers have attempted to examine that issue by collecting data, this research study examined information governance in organizations using a variety of methods (e.g., interviews with managers) and found that there was no clear consensus regarding its importance for organizations or its impact on decision making processes.

Literature review is a key step in research and writing.
A literature review is an important step in research and writing. It helps you to identify gaps in the literature, and set up a research question that will guide your own study.
A literature review can also help you understand the existing research on your topic, how it relates to your own research, and what questions remain unanswered.
Conclusion
You have successfully conducted a literature review on Information Governance. You have determined how researchers have attempted to examine that issue by collecting data, provided your own unique evaluation of the literature about how you think information governance influences the management of information in organization(s), and used evidence from the literature to provide a foundation for conducting a research project on this topic.
