Korea's public institutions produce mandatory production records under the "Public Records Management Act" and submit statistics on production status to the National Archives of Korea every year. However, there is a difference between the actual status of compulsory records produced by local governments and the status statistics submitted to the Archives. Based on this, an improvement plan was proposed after identifying problems with the production management system of the production obligation records. In particular, the scope of the production obligation records is ambiguous, and the person in charge lacks an understanding of the specific scope. In addition, only certain work-oriented records are being produced. As such, the improvement plan shall clearly determine the target of the local government's production obligation records, and the person in charge of the affairs shall understand it and implement an ordinance on the production and management of the local government's production obligation records.

This article reviews the current Public Records Management Act which revised in October 2006 and put in force in April 2007. Since Public Records Management Act has been enacted in 1999, the external development of record management is significant. The Road Map for Record Management Reform in 2005 and the Information Strategy Project in 2006 are prime examples. However, our legal system concerning record management is still posing a number of problems, ranging from issues about objects and definitions of record management to issues of access. These issues have been subject to serious critics from various stakeholders, including civil organizations and academics. The article analyses a legal status of the National Archives of Korea and issues concerning access to current and archival records. As a result of the discussion, the article provides alternative plans.

The records managed in special archives are core records of our society produced and managed by actual power players in the decision-making process. The Public Records Management Act stipulates that the transfer period of non-public records under its jurisdiction may be extended to 30 years after the end of the year of production only to special archives, and that the transfer period may be extended if it is necessary to continue to use them for business performance even after 30 years. In order to understand the exceptional procedures and implementation of this special records management system, an analysis of not only the meaning of special records but also the characteristics, scope, and types of special records must be preceded. In addition, the implementation method of the special records maintained by the institution must be analyzed. It also needs to be reviewed. Therefore, this paper first analyzed the transfer status of special records revealed in the National Archives' white paper and statistical data and examined the types, categories, and characteristics of special records and special archives. Second, we reviewed the establishment of special archives by 2023 and changes in operating methods according to the organizational system.

In the electronic record environment, there are discussions about the necessity of using records as information, and ISO 15489:2016 defines records as one of the information assets. In acceptance of this concept of information assets, the national archives of each country have established related policies and guidelines to actively promote information asset management. This paper intends to analyze the information asset management policies and guidelines that are established by the national archives of each country. This is to identify global trends for information assetization of records in the digital environment and derive benchmarking factors for seeking institutional establishment in Korea. To this end, the definition of records in ISO standards and related research results are analyzed to investigate the conceptual origins of information assets. Moreover, the actual cases about information asset management of the national archives of the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Australia are investigated. Based on this, the implications of overseas cases and issues to be supplemented to establish the relationship between records and information assets are presented as a part of seeking institutional establishment in Korea.
