With the National Archives of Korea's establishment of the Selection Criteria for Preservation Format of Digital Records (v1.0) in 2022, criteria have been formed to facilitate the selection of appropriate preservation formats for various types of digital records. With the advancement of technology, diverse electronic file types are produced. However, no specific criteria exist for records other than document types, such as PDF/A-1b. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to derive intrinsic criteria for selecting preservation formats for audiovisual records, particularly focusing on video-type digital records, to expand the scope of the preservation format selection criteria. Initially, significant properties of video-type digital records were determined, forming the basis for the intrinsic criteria. According to these properties, the video types were categorized into container type and codec type, and three and six evaluation criteria items were derived, respectively. By structuring evaluation criteria for each attribute, this paper proposes intrinsic criteria for selecting preservation formats for video-type electronic records.

This thesis is performed to suggest an objective and effective optimization plan of appraisal for archival values. Even though saving all of archives and records and passing them to descendants would be a strong preservation method, but preservation expenses cannot be ignored. Additionally the appraisal for archives is completed by selecting and preserving high-value records, preserving all of records seems not to be effective. In this aspects archivists have tried to find the appraisal standard to ensure the objectivity of it, however, existing studies cannot bring out positive method because of focusing on analyzing only theoretical analysis on appraisal. This study divides appraisal for archives in 3 steps; inquiry for the records creators, appraisal of archivists, appraisal of appraisal experts, and suggests the standard to increase objectivity and confidency of appraisal. The optimization plan of appraisal for archival values with the results of this thesis would influence on the revitalization of reappraisal for the archives in repository and archive of Korea.

Appraisal is one of the most important record management tasks. Appraisal is the process of evaluating business activities to determine which records need to be captured and how long the records need to be kept to meet business, the requirements of organizational accountability and community expectations. Appraisal, therefore, is concerned with deciding both what records should be created to document a business activity and how long those records should be retained. This paper attempts to review the appraisal policies of four national archives in UK, USA, Canada, Australia, which have managed public records systematically and to compare appraisal policies in the following five parts such as 1) purpose, 2) appraisal objectives, 3) appraisal values, 4) procedures for appraisal, and 5) special considerations. Finally, the paper suggests the important items required when the Korean National Archives and Records Services develops their own appraisal policies.

Reappraisal is a process to examine the past appraisal decision. The reappraisal theory is based on two facts: first, appraisal decision can not be always correct, second, the archival value is changed by time. So, reappraisal policy should complement the limit of the first appraisal results, which is based on the function analysis. To achieve this goal, it is needed to use different process and methods from the first appraisal. However, existing reappraisal system does not meet the essential purpose of reappraisal. This article examined the limit of the reappraisal policy. To complement the problems, this article set a direction and suggested the subject-based reappraisal. The aim of this study is to present the methods to document the society of the generation.

The purpose of this study is the design of the archival appraisal criteria to judge important research records and set the appraisal direction in the public research institution. The scope of research was limited to design the applicable appraisal criteria at the research institutions rather than in national level and the appraisal criteria examples in three public research institutions were analyzed. Based on the results of this analysis, I suggested the appraisal and selection criteria for long term preservation of research records including 10 appraisal areas. This study has a little limit because the suggested appraisal criteria was not verified by researchers(key appraiser) and enough examples were not analyzed. However, this study can support research institutions to set the scope and type of research records to be preserved. In addition, I hope that this study can give a little help institutions to judge and select key research records.
