As the importance and proportion of electronic records increases in the public sector, the necessity for variable types of records management has strengthened. Elements of records management metadata standards, which were provided in 2007 by the National Archives of Korea, focused mainly on text-centered records management standards. Therefore an extension of elements which can represent diverse types of electronic records is needed. In this study, metadata elements focusing on image records are suggested. For this, the characteristics of image records are investigated and the Australian government recordkeeping metadata standard and the PREMIS data dictionary, which have been recently modified, are analyzed. Through this, four elements, format, significant properties, environment, and coverage are suggested to fortify the current records management standard.

The study aims to analyze the characteristics and problems of raw image file formats, evaluate its suitability for the management of digital photographic records, and suggest the introduction method to utilize such format in public institutions. Raw image file formats feature reversibility and flexibility. However, most of them are proprietary file formats that depend on the digital camera manufacturer. The DNG format, which was developed to standardize raw image file formats, has received positive reviews from overseas public agencies. However, the DNG format is not fully recognized as a standard; hence, it is appropriate to use it tentatively until the standard raw format appears. On the other hand, the converted digital photo file format is not recognized as an original with legal authenticity. Therefore, in the short term, DNG files created by format conversion and original raw files should be encapsulated and preserved. Furthermore, it is necessary to redefine the baseline of the hash value and file size to recognize the legal authenticity only with DNG files in the long term.

Records have temporal characteristics, including the past and present; linguistic characteristics not limited to a specific language; and various types categorized in a complex way. Processing records such as text, video, and audio in the life cycle of records' creation, preservation, and utilization entails exhaustive effort and cost. Primary natural language processing (NLP) technologies, such as machine translation, document summarization, named-entity recognition, and image recognition, can be widely applied to electronic records and analog digitization. In particular, Korean deep learning-based NLP technologies effectively recognize various record types and generate record management metadata. This paper provides an overview of Korean NLP technologies and discusses considerations for applying NLP technology in records management. The process of using NLP technologies, such as machine translation and optical character recognition for digital conversion of records, is introduced as an example implemented in the Python environment. In contrast, a plan to improve environmental factors and record digitization guidelines for applying NLP technology in the records management field is proposed for utilizing NLP technology.

Electronic records, characterized by their inherent volatility and instability, necessitate sustainable preservation measures to ensure their long-term accessibility. The National Archives of Korea has instituted a selection system for preservation formats tailored predominantly for document-type electronic records. However, this system falls short in accommodating other record types such as audiovisual records. This study endeavors to broaden the applicability of the existing system, with a concentrated focus on image-type electronic records, and to formulate foundational guidelines for their long-term preservation. In South Korea, image-type electronic records rank as the second most prevalent category following document-type. The image-type electronic records are the most basic form of audio-visual records, and research on this lays the foundation for future discussions on other audio-visual records. Consequently, this research has led to the development of a selection system for preservation formats specifically for image-type electronic records. This system is designed to facilitate the prompt and efficient evaluation of preservation format suitability, even in the context of emerging image formats. The efficacy of this system was validated through its application to extant image formats, resulting in the selection of TIFF, JFIF, and PNG as the optimal preservation formats. The outcomes of this study offer valuable insights and practical reference points for future preservation format evaluations within the field of electronic record management.

Photography has been used as a typical tool of recording image since its invention in the nineteenth century. Photographs provide valuable visual information about all parts of society, and a systematic management must be preceded to use these information. The management and preservation system of photographs should reflect the characteristics of photographic medium. It is necessary for many archives to perform appraisal first to collect and manage enormous photographs. Appraisal is the process of determining meaning and value of records, and the reasonable criteria should be needed to carry it out. The purpose of this study is to suggest appraisal criteria for photographic records based on the archival appraisal theories and the characteristics of photography. This study draws on traditional appraisal theories and some literatures for archival management of photographs. This study is organized as follows. The first section examines the concept and values of photographic records and the distinctiveness of appraising photographs. The second section analyzes the existing appraisal criteria for individual records. The third section designs appraisal classes of photographic records and proposes the criteria for each classes.

As the tangible evidence, documentary art records are permanent records to reflect the historical, symbolical, cultural and artistic value. Also, documentary art records are related with mission fulfillment of public institution and it is documentary with administrative, cultural and artistic values as the works of documentary production and application of the administrative image. "The public records management law" was the first time that administration documents were incorporated and in the act No. 3 of administrative records management, the preservation and management system of documentary art records became legislated. The management of documentary art records are difficult to categorize only by the reflect of characteristics or materials. Because documentary art records are collected in many ways and made with materials. It needs to be collected with many informations on basic materials and with the appropriate conservation and management category. Documentary art records do not have lots of demands but the level of consciousness is improving and the possibility of opening to public is increasing for improvement with the right to know. In near future, the documentary art records will be used for the interpretation of historical and cultural preservation and modern cultural heritage could have the value as it is expected. Primarily to prevent deterioration on documentary art records the standard survey card should be made to categorize the damage rate and to check the status on each documentary art records. In addition, establishing a systematic management plan for various documentary art records are needed with the training of professionals for the conservation of documentary art records.
