vyradenie

Vyradenie is a noun in Slovak referring to the act of removing something from an official list, registry, or system. It denotes that the item no longer has status, validity, or usefulness within its context and may involve deletion, disposal, or exclusion. The term is derived from the verb vyradiť, meaning to remove or exclude, and is used across various domains of administration and organizational life.

In practical use, vyradenie occurs in records management, libraries, archives, asset management, and IT. In libraries or archives, vyraďovanie refers to deaccessioning or deleting items from the collection when they are obsolete, damaged, or no longer relevant. In asset management, vyradenie majetku describes the removal of equipment from active use, often followed by disposal or sale. In IT and data management, it can mean deletion of data or deactivation of user accounts, thereby removing access and validity from the system.

Process and criteria: Vyradenie is typically preceded by an assessment against defined criteria such as obsolescence, deterioration, redundancy, legal retention requirements, and cost-benefit considerations. The decision may require documentation, authorization by a responsible officer or committee, and recording in an inventory or records system. Compliance with applicable laws, retention schedules, and ethical standards is usually required, particularly when personal data or cultural heritage items are involved.

Notes: While the term is common in Slovak, Czech and related contexts, it is often used as "vyradenie" or "vyraďovanie" depending on the domain. In English-language discourse, it is sometimes translated as deaccessioning, deletion, or decommissioning.
