Because archaeological artifacts are often destroyed during physical excavation, the data archaeologists gather in the field is rich with research potential. Few in Korea have paid attention to digital archives for archaeological data or argued for their development. This paper considers the significance and necessity of archaeological data and digital archives for its preservation and access. It also raises awareness of the need to develop a Korean national archaeological data digital archive. The paper first overviews the nature of the archaeological discipline, data, and digital archives. Then it investigates well-known, global cases involving digital archiving of archaeological data. Based on these foundations, the paper discusses principal and prior challenges to developing a Korean national archaeological data digital archive.

The year of 2013 is the first year that the new president takes the power and administrates the national affairs. In Korea, when the new president comes, the new administration brings big changes in the politics, economy, and society. The government management style has been changed according to the orientation and styles of the new president. Public records management is a critical and effective business tool to establish and carry out the government policies as well as an essential tool for democracy. Modern democracy is based on good governance. Creation and free use of full and accurate public records makes the good communication between the government and the public possible, and people's participation in the policy-making and surveillance of government activities for public good can work. During the present administration, communication between the president and the people was cutoff and people's participation in the national affairs have been further limited. Furthermore, in the present administration, the public records management was not regarded important, Whatever new administration comes, the year of 2013 is the time for the new administration to realize again the importance of the public records management and put it back to the normal track. Here are the major issues in the public records management to be concerned and resolved; (1) to ensure technological and institutional management of the electronic records in the government and safe transfer of the massive electronic records, (2) to establish an independent national records management and archives authority to be based on good governance, (3) to innovate the public records management in the public agencies including their agency records offices (RMO) and records management systems (RMS) (4) to establish local government archives and document local government policies and activities (5) supporting and promotion for documentation of the total society as a public service (6) expanding employment of professional records managers and archivists in the central and local governments, and standardization of professional competency and certification. In this paper, I will introduce the major issues in the public records management and suggest the policies and solutions that the Korean records professionals considered and discussed. This analysis and suggestions are the outcome of our professional considerations and discussions.

In a new technological environment such as big data and AI, LOD will link record information resources with various data from both inside and outside. At the heart of this connection is the interlinking technology, and interlinked LOD will realize the opening of record information as the highest level of open data. Given the ever-increasing amount of records, automation through interlinking algorithms is essential in building LODs. Therefore, this paper analyzed the structure of record information interlinking with the external data and characteristics of the record information to be considered when interconnecting. After collecting samples from the CAMS data of the National Archives, we constructed a record information's LOD. After that, we conducted a test bed that automatically interlinks the personal information of the record metadata with DBPedia. This confirms the automatic interlinking process and the performance and accuracy of the automation technology. Through the implications of the testbed, we have identified the considerations of the record information resources of the LOD interlinking process.

Based on the risk factor evaluation for the file format, this paper defines the procedures for presenting the long-term preservation plan for that format and the technical information registry necessary for building the system. This is a procedure to perform a risk assessment for the format, evaluate the risk, and select a long-term preservation strategy based on the information registered in the registry and information on the external signature and internal signature of the electronic record. We also reviewed the criteria for selecting appropriate long-term preservation strategies in the process and provided the criteria for adopting each detailed strategy of migration and emulation, which are long-term preservation strategies. And we implemented this process as a long-term preservation decision support system. This system can be used to provide guidelines for the maintenance, management, service and long-term preservation of information resources of electronic records in public institutions such as National Archives of Korea and Libraries.

The need for and importance of preserving various information resources on the web is constantly increasing. In addition to traditional types of records, the web contains communication records displaying various people's diverse viewpoints and connecting an event to its context. In particular, information resources produced during a disaster must be collected for long-term preservation. The "OASIS Disaster Archive" is a service provided through OASIS, which was developed and is managed by the National Library of Korea, to collect and preserve online information resources related to the recent disaster events in Korea. This study examines the characteristics and current status of the contents of the Disaster Archive to make suggestions for its improvements.

Recently, the central administrative agency changed its business management system to cloud-based On-nara 2.0. To transfer and manage the records of the cloud business management system, the National Archives Service has developed and distributed a cloud-based records management system. It serves as an opportunity to maximize the benefits of cloud computing and redesign the records management to be more effective and efficient. The process and method of electronic record management can be transformed through digital technologies. First, we can change the transfer method for electronic records. When the business and the records management systems share the same cloud storage, it is possible to transfer the content files between the two systems without moving the contents files physically, thus copying only the metadata and reducing the cost and the risk of integrity damage. Second, the strategy for allocating storage space for contents can be conceived. Assuming that the cloud storage is shared by the business and the record management systems, it is advantageous to distinguish the storage location based on the retention period of the content files. Third, systems that access content files, such as records creation, records management, and information disclosure systems, can share the cloud storage and minimize the duplication of content files.

This study aims to propose implications for the development of archival content of archives management institutions in Korea by analyzing cases of the archival content on Instagram of the national archives in the Anglosphere. The basic information of the research target's Instagram account, including the creation date, content, and the number of followers, was investigated, and the posts' contents and interaction types with high user responses were analyzed. As a result, to spread the records information service using Instagram, producing images and short-form content that can be intuitively checked through mobile screens and creating content that will attract the attention of primary users are required. Moreover, it is necessary to develop content for informative communications that can be shared with other users. There is also a need to enhance the exposure and searchability of the institution's Instagram account by strengthening connections with the institution's existing online resources and enabling communications, such as using hashtags, following related institutional accounts, and providing feedback on the contents' comments with followers. This study is meaningful in that it examined cases of archival content for Instagram and suggested their applications, and it can be used as basic data to help plan archival contents to spread the archival culture.

Recently, distribution of record via web and coefficient of utilization are increase. so, Archival information service using website becomes essential part of record center. The main point of archival information service by website is making record information retrieval easy. It has need of matching user's request and representation of record resources correctly to making archival information retrieval easy. Archivist and record manager have used various information representation tools from taxonomy to recent thesaurus, still, the accuracy of information retrieval has not solved. This study constructed record retrieval system based on Topic Map by modeling record resources which focusing on description metadata of the records to improve this problem. The target user of the system is general web users and its range is limited to the president related sources in the National Archives Portal Service. The procedure is as follows; 1) Design an ontology model for archival information service based on topic map which focusing on description metadata of the records. 2) Buildpractical record retrieval system with topic map that received information source list, which extracted from the National Archives Portal Service, by editor. 3) Check and assess features of record retrieval system based on topic map through user interface. Through the practice, relevance navigation to other record sources by semantic inference of description metadata is confirmed. And also, records could be built up as knowledge with result of scattered archival sources.

The objective of this research is to show the possibilities of emulation strategy in the long-term preservation for the digital components of Korean public agencies. First, this study analyzed four major emulation projects that were conducted in the world, such as CAMiLEON, KB, Planets and KEEP. Second, it compared the three different emulation approaches, such as device emulation, OS emulation and application emulation. Third, it searched all the digital components that one public agency produced during the last six years. Through the search, this study found out that the HWP and XLS format files comprised around 90% of the files. Fourth, it examined the functionalities of the formats, which may have been lost when the format was converted to PDF/A. Last, this study introduced the two prototype emulators for the National Archives of Korea. One is a type of OS emulator, while the other is a type of application emulator.
