This study intends to analyze the information continuum model as part of establishing the relationship between records and information. The information continuum is a theoretical system designed to establish a new information concept from the record-keeping point of view based on the record continuum. It provides a conceptual framework that can identify the elements for information management that exist in record-keeping. Accordingly, in Chapter 2, the background and process of the information continuum development, which followed after the record continuum development, were reviewed. Then, the concept of information established by borrowing information science theory was examined in relation to the record continuum. In Chapter 3, the conceptual structure of the information continuum and the purpose and method of information utilization were considered. Afterward, the four dimensions and attributes that structurally schematize the elements for information management in record-keeping were analyzed. Based on this analysis, Chapter 4 tried to present the meaning and limitations of the information continuum.

Record continuum is a theory providing the basis for archival science in the paradigm shift to the electronic record environment. However, critical analysis of it has been hardly performed so far, as it is still in development, and its core is a new perspective on records different from the life cycle model. Therefore, for further understanding of the significance and limitations of record continuum in the electronic record environment and performance of more in-depth theoretical development, an analysis of the meaning and nature of records contained in record continuum logic is essential. Given that record continuum does not define a record separately, the meaning and nature of records it contains in the recent electronic record environment are examined through the analysis of axis and dimension in a record continuum model.

In this study, the origin of the record continuum theory was analyzed in conjunction with the record management situation in Australia after the mid-20th century and record lifecycle model. For an in-depth understanding of the record continuum theory, it is necessary to consider the background and process of its formation, and to analyze the lifecycle model itself in terms of a theoretical system built with reflections on the lifecycle model. To this end, first of all, with the aim of analyzing the historical background of the formation of the record continuum theory, the background and process that led to intensive illumination of the US lifecycle model in the process of seeking an independent public records management system in Australia in the 1950s were reviewed. Then, the meaning and limitations of the lifecycle model were considered along with the background of the formation. In order to examine the main contents, significance, and limitations of the lifecycle model, it is necessary to analyze the circumstances under which it was formed. Based on this analysis, finally, the problems associated with the application of the lifecycle model in Australia's new record creation environment, as well as the factors that were the origin of the newly born record continuum theory were examined.

The record continuum theory is now being studied in Australia, wherein the segregated record management of current, semi-current, and past records based on the temporal flow of the life cycle theory are being critcized. In addition, it emerged as a new paradigm for electronic record management without time and spatial constraints. Moreover, it is recognized as a logical and conceptual entity rather than as a fixed physical object. It also makes it possible to record multiple records in consideration of the complex, multidimensional environment of records. Based on this record continuation theory, the current information and communications technology (ICT) is applied to the four axes and dimension of the record continuation diagram of theoretical researcher Frank Upward. The researchers aim to realize a video recording management method suitable for the electronic record age.

In this study, the appraisal in record continuum theory is analyzed in conjunction with the appraisal in life cycle model. In order to understand the more fundamental implications of appraisal in electronic record environment, it is essential to analyze the appraisal inherent in record continuum theory. Record continuum theory can provide a theoretical basis for appraisal in electronic record environment in that it is a theoretical system in opposition of the appraisal based on life cycle model and dualistic records management system resulting from it. In particular, considering that the appraisal is a purposive act of seeking the meaning of records, the reinterpretation of the concept and meaning of records intended in record continuum theory enables us to derive the different appraisal logics than before. Therefore In this study, based on comparison with the appraisal based on life cycle model and the new record concept presented in record continuum, the appraisal in record continuum theory is analyzed focusing on three aspects.

This study reinterprets the meaning of the record contents from the viewpoint of the record continuum to find ways to enhance the usability of records that are emphasized by the electronic record environments. In general, in academic discussions and practical examples, record contents are recognized as digital media produced by putting a high level of computer technologies and a big budget based on some records related to specific subjects. To enhance the usability of, and spread the meaning through, records, it is necessary to shift the awareness in record contents. For this purpose in Chapter 2, to grasp the meanings of the church records as well as the utilization direction, it is necessary to analyze the organization and function. Therefore, the analysis of the organization and function of the church was examined. In Chapter 3, this study attempted to find the meaning of the contents of church records in each dimension of the record continuum in relation to the mission of the church, which was identified through the organization and function analysis of the church. In Section 3, which corresponds to Dimension 4, the meaning of church record contents is diversified in society. In the end, this study suggests that the meaning and use value of records can be found in everyday life and can then be spread to society as well.

to apply standardized principles and methodologies to the appraisal of records because it is different for each country, region, and organization to distinguish what kind of records are important and how to select them. For this reason, numerous theories and methodologies have been proposed around the appraisal of records. ISO 15489-1:2016, on the other hand, has laid the groundwork for the standardization of the appraisal of records that are applicable globally in recent record management environments based on a new perspective on the appraisal of records. ISO 15489 presents the principles and methodology of records management that are consistent with the electronic record environment based on the record continuum theory, and the principles and methods on the appraisal of records presented in ISO 15489-1:2016 need to be analyzed in depth. This paper analyzes the concept and the logic of the appraisal of records presented in ISO 15489-1:2016 to find an improvement direction in accordance with the recent electronic record environment. For this purpose, it reviewed courses from the enactment of AS 4390 to the revision of ISO 15489 to understand the background of the appraisal principles of ISO 15489-1:2016. Based on this, the appraisal concepts and principles presented in ISO 15489-1:2016 were examined, and the process of the appraisal was analyzed.
