SIGMM Records are the newsletters from the Special Interest Group (SIG) on Multimedia. This is a magazine that distributes four issues per year containing articles related to successful research topics and background stories.

It is available as an ACM newsletter series (ISSN 1947-4598, with each article assigned a DOI) in the own website of ACM SIGMM Records (http://records.sigmm.org), in the website of the Special Interest Group on Multimedia (http://sigmm.org) and also in the ACM Digital library.
 
One of the sections of the Records is related to reports from Standardization organizations. There are columns related to MPEG, JPEG, and now also to VQEG.
