Many local governments in Korea provide online services for people to easily access the audio-visual archives of events occurring in the area. However, the current method of managing these archives of the local governments has several problems in terms of compatibility with other organizations and convenience for searching of the archives because of the lack of standard metadata and the low utilization of image information. To solve these problems, we propose the metadata design and machine learning-based automatic indexing technology for the efficient management of the image archives of local governments in Korea. Moreover, we design metadata items specialized for the image archives of local governments to improve the compatibility and include the elements that can represent the basic information and characteristics of images into the metadata items, enabling efficient management. In addition, the text and objects in images, which include pieces of information that reflect events and categories, are automatically indexed based on the machine learning technology, enhancing users' search convenience. Lastly, we developed the program that automatically extracts text and objects from image archives using the proposed method, and stores the extracted contents and basic information in the metadata items we designed.

It becomes possible to conserve and manage the records also which the Head of Archives(National Archives of Korea) designated at the Records Center(Special Records Center) based on the amendment of the Article 30 of the Enforcement Ordinance of the Public Records Management Act on Nov. 2014. However, the right for the decision for above is given to the National Archives of Korea and other operation and preservation management system different with existing ones such as that relevant Records Centers prepare preservation countermeasure of subject for the amendment and additionally perform all sorts of works about the management should be prepared when the amendment treatment is executed. However, there is only the contents about the change of the preservation place is regulated in the Enforcement Ordinance of the Public Records Management Act and no legal basis to support the repositories for these change, so additional improvement is necessary. In this paper, present condition of preservation place change of the National Archives of Korea and the operation condition of relative records centers and suggest the supplementary and improving items with the Public Records Management Act.

This study aims to analyze the features and problems of the Korea's national records archiving system established in 1999, as well as to suggest the countermeasures. First, in Korea, permanent records are archived by the administration, legislature and judicature separately. However, around the world there are very few cases where a national archives controls the records of the administration alone, whereupon there is the need to set up an integrated archiving system regarding the records of the administration, legislature and judicature. Second, in Korea, the records archiving system leans too much towards the centrally-controlled system, which is urgent to be solved. 'Record Management Act' stipulates that all the public records, including nonpermanent ones, shall be managed by National Archives, wherewith National Archives is overburdened. Hereat, it may be desirable for National Archives to manage very important records that deserve to be archived permanently and for Record Center to archive other records, which needs to be made into law.

The National Archives of Korea(NAK) has a mission to ingest large-scaled digital records and information from a number of different government agencies annually from 2015. There are important issues related to the digital records and information transfer between NAK and agencies, and one of them is how to configure deployment of digital repositories for the archives management systems. The purpose of this paper is to offer the way to design it by examining the checkpoints through the whole life cycle of digital records and information in the archives management systems and calculating the amount of ingested digital records and information to the systems in 2015 and deploying the digital repositories configured according to the amount the records and information. Firstly, this paper suggests that the archives management systems in NAK should be considered and examined into at least three different parts called Ingest tier, Preservation tier and Access tier in aspects to the characteristics of the flow and process of the digital records and information. Secondly, as a results of the calculation the amount of the digital records and information ingested to the archives management systems in 2015 is sum up to around 2.5 Tera bytes. This research draws several requirements related to the large-scaled data and bulk operations which should be satisfied by the database or database management system implemented on to the archives management systems. Thirdly, this paper configures digital repositories deployment according to the characteristics of the three tiers respectively. This research triggers discussion in depth and gives specific clues about how to design the digital repositories in the archives management systems for preparing the year of 2015.

In 1999, "Records management of public instituition Act" was enacted. Since then, records management system has been developed, but the level of records management is still low in reality. This article is to present suggestions in policy of national records management. To flourish national records management, 'governance' should be performed during policy propulsion and National Archives of Korea should be politically neutral and independent. In addition, records management system needs to be wide-spread, many different archives should be established, also archives should have archivists. Not only that, managers of archives need to cooperate and thrive with autonomy, decentralization of authority, and solidarity.

After establishment of Records Act in 1999, we issued the all-out revision Act because of too much changing of records management environment. Even though the new Records Act has much reformed clauses, classified records management itself is not much improved. Under this present situation, this study analyze both Records Act and related Act to get an improved plan which would be applied at Records Center. Simultaneously, the case study of National Archives of Korea's ISP and Army Archives' can be useful research data. Finally, the study suggest that an improvement plan of classified records management process which is consist of three sub-process that are 'transfer step'-'retention and management step'-'service step'.

Since the e-government has been established, a significant portion of governmental business processes is conducted on the web. There are a large amount of records which are used and maintained only on the web. However, although the web-based governmental records have a great value as national strategic resources and cultural heritages, there is no practical management activity for them. In this context the study discusses the necessity of web-based records information management policies and explores problems of web-based records management policies. As a case study, TNA in the UK and NARA in the US are discussed. Also, the National Archives of Korea and the Presidential Archives are explored. Furthermore, a comparative analysis is conducted against these four cases. Based on the discussion, as a result, the study presents feasible solutions to web-based records management policies in terms of law, system and technology.

Archives have directly and indirectly served for memory. What is collected in archives, how it is presented to users, and how users understand and use the documents affects how a given society remembers its past. Some archival scholars see that how users interpret documents from their perspectives and by social interests may play a central role in constructing social memory because memories are often triggered by individual and social concerns of the present time. Therefore, knowing what causes users to seek for a certain materials, how they use those materials and why can offer a clue to learn how archives serve for social memory. In the Web space, the interaction between users and archives/archival materials can be easily observed. Beyond making access simple for users and promoting archival documents using Web technology, archives can serve the broader purpose of memory by skillfully exploiting the characteristics of Web 2.0 and digital cultures in a way to observe how users engage in and contribute to archival contents available on the Web. This study examines the discourses on memory in the archival context, and in particular, how archives can serve as platforms for memory within the new environment of Web 2.0 technologies. It surveys discussions on memory in relation to archives, history, and evidence, focusing on the user and use context as it is represented in the archival literature. This paper discusses how that technology provides features that allow us to see collective memory being constructed in the archives, and presents examples of how the Web 2.0 technology can structure the way users share their memories in building a larger narrative around the archive.

The purpose of this study is to develop a model of the TOC (Table of Contents)-based research record system and to comparatively analyze its usability, in order to comprehensively and systematically manage and practically use the various research records generated from the entire process of research and development. For this purpose, the templates for technical recording and the components of each item were proposed to enable technical recording based on TOC, and structured contents were designed to organically connect between these TOC technical records and existing research records. Also, a database logical schema was developed to design a database, and a test collection was constructed on the basis of research records and TOC technical records. Finally, the model of research record system was constructed by designing TOC record search system and user interface including integrated search system. Based on this model, the usability assessment was performed by comparing the existing distributed general systems with the TOC-based research record system. As a result of the comparative analysis of these two systems, the TOC-based research record system showed generally higher utilization of research records than the general systems.
