Museum Records is both a resource for the administration and for researchers. And It is necessary for the day-to-day operation of the museum's activity and it serves researchers of all kinds. This study is aimed to grasp the present condition of museum records management in a National Museum of Korea and 11 local national museums in Korea as a case study. To this end, two methods were used to collect the essential data. First, a comprehensive literature survey was conducted to investigate foreign successful museum records management system. Second, interview and questionnaire survey were conducted to collect the data of actual state of National Museum. The results show that National Museum should be a wholly responsible for the department and disposition of professional staffs and set up the comprehensive registration system, the standard of classification considering the museum's feature and the regular estimation system. And also National Museum should expand and improve the facilities according to "Archives and Records Management of Public Agencies Act".

This article introduces the case of archival management of the War and Women's Human Rights Museum. The War and Women's Human Rights is a nongovernment organization (NGO) focusing on the welfare of the Korean women who survived the Japanese military sexual slavery and is operated by a small museum. On the surface, the institution is registered and operated as a museum; however, as the parent institution's actual work and collection records were transferred and managed, archival management functions account for a large portion of the museum's work. In this study, the museum archivist and the collection archives' characteristics and roles were introduced. As the differences and specialization between general museums and records management institutions are seen through the collection types, the advantages of a museum for archive management were discussed, and a system for records management institutions to move toward cultural institutions was proposed. Furthermore, the record management problems and their impacts on record management in response to the organization's recent crisis, and its future vision and plans were introduced.

This study is to investigate the development of 'Educational Larchiveum' especially for the Kyeongsangnam-do Provincial Office of Education. 'Educational Larchiveum' means Educational Archives including some museum and library functions. This study begins with articulating that why the provincial offices of education should establish their own archives despite of legal obligation. It draws the roles of 'Educational Larchiveum' and its environmental requirements, based on analysing the Archives/Museum case of Toronto District School Board Education. Finally it suggests that how Gyeongsnam-do Offie of Education can establish the 'Educational Larchiveum' in condition of integration of the Gyeongsnam-do Educational Museum and the private educational museum(Park Yeon-mook Educationl Museum).

In the recent changes in the museum industry, one trend that can be observed is museums' attempt to expand their role scope from the collection and preservation of historically valuable materials to utilization and recreation through the introduction of the concept of an archive for museum data management and utilization. Data generated by the experience program at the university museum is expected to grow in size and increase the value of use, but there has been no area where records management for the experience program has been systematically established and operated. Therefore, this study conducted a survey on the operation status of domestic and foreign university museum experience programs and the person in charge of them. Based on the analysis of the results, it proposed a method for handling the records of the university museum experience program to systematically collect related records and manage them efficiently.

This study investigated collection status, characteristics of their collections, and service of five institutions holding modern public records such as museums, archives and libraries in Korea. Investigation found out that most of them lack total catalog of their collections and provide limited on-line service. In addition, there was a case that one record group from the same provenance is separatedly preserved at two to three institutions. As a result of the investigation, it is suggested that cooperation among museum, archives, and research institutes will be necessary in order to arrange and use modern public records scattered in each institution.

본 연구는 기록물관리법 시행과 함께 대학자료관 설치가 의무화되고 있는 시점에서 자료관의 불필요한 중복을 피하고, 규모 및 기능 등을 구체화하기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 대학자료관 설치를 통한 효율적인 대학기록물 보존을 위해서는 중장기적인 발전계획의 수립과 유사기능을 갖는 도서관 및 박물관등에서 이루어지고 있는 대학기록물 및 보존환경 등에 대한 충분한 검토가 이루어져야 한다. 이는 여러 곳에서 기록물을 가지고 있다고 하더라도 관리의 측면에서는 이들 모두 대학 기록물로서의 일부를 이루기 때문이다. 특히 지방대학의 경우 현실적인 여건을 극복하기 위하여 기관 내 유사기능 기관들과 또는 지역 내 대학간 협력을 통해 기록물의 정보를 서로 공유하고 활용할 수 있는 효과적인 기능수행을 모색할 필요성이 있다.

This study investigated professional values on which the practices and the perceptions of professions were based, then identified common professional values and different ones. The codes of ethics by professional organizations of libraries, archives, or museums in the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and Australia were selected for the analysis. Predicated on the literature review, common professional values were derived from the existing studies. While conducting the analysis, 13 values were identified and finalized. As a result, it was found that common professional values included access, privacy, stewardship, professional conduct and professional responsibilities to the society. Intellectual freedom in the library area, records as an evidence in the archive area, and research and interpretation in the museum area are those emphasized and unique in each area.

Previously, the International Council of Archives (ICA) provided the General International Standard Archival Description (ISAD(G)) and the International Standard Archival Authority Record for Corporate Bodies, Persons and Families (ISAAR(CPF)) for the systematic archival description by the Committee on Best Practice and Standards. Recently, the new conceptual model and ontology, which is called "Record in Context" (RIC), is being developed by the ICA Experts Group on Archival Description (EGAD). For developing the new archival standard, ICA EGAD has referenced the archival standards of Australia, Spain, and Finland, as well as the FRBRoo integrated model of the museum and library fields and the legacy ICA's descriptive standards. This study, therefore, examined these international trends on the archival descriptive standards and derived a number of suggestions for improvement. As a result, descriptive standards are changing from the guidelines for the standardized archival description to the upper conceptual model and ontology for the flexible archival description and sharing of archival metadata. There is a need to adapt the change of the information environment and promote cooperation among cultural heritage institutions.

Libraries, archives and museums share the common mission of collecting and providing access to cultural heritage for the use of both current and future generations. Although the evolution of these cultural heritage institutions have taken place separately, distinguishing publications, records and 3-dimensional objects, it is expected that the pervasive digital environment will not allow the distinction remain effective for long. The present study aims at exploring commonalities and differences of the cultural heritage institutions and illuminating the necessities and possibilities of collaboration among them.

Minutes of cabinet meetings (hereafter referred to as "minutes") offer records on important activities of the government of the Republic of Korea. The National Archives of Korea has implemented a series of preservation for these minutes such as condition survey, deacidification, microfilming, digitization, making boxes, etc. Conservation treatment plans were further established in 2018 to pursue more preservation of over 2,000 volumes of minutes based on the result of the condition survey of the minutes. Among ninety-seven volumes that require conservation treatments, six volumes have been treated so far. A major concern of conservation treatment of minutes was found that a single volume of minutes contains 800 pages, leading to heavier and bulkier than most of other bound volumes. This paper presents the measures taken to solve the problems resulting from this bulky structure of the bound minutes. It is expected that the study will offer an opportunity to consider effective conservation methods for records on paper of which the physical shapes are yet to be determined.
