Abstract

Beyond being mere administrative products for their functional running, records produced by nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and arranged voluntarily by citizens are memories of civil society. Online information services are expanding in the archives sector, but it is not easy to provide services with a limited budget from activist NGOs. Besides, there has never been a case study of information services for NGOs, resulting in a lack of basic data. Therefore, this study surveyed the status of online information services of 5,725 NGOs that have a UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) consultative status. Furthermore, it conducted an in-depth analysis of 10 selected NGOs to contribute to preserving civil society activities and promoting the use of their records. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, 75 out of 5,725 NGOs had physical and digital archives. Second, domestic NGOs must supplement their policy of accessing and using physical records and operate 1:1 inquiries and Q&A services to provide active record information services. Overseas NGOs must consider expanding online full-text and outreach services using records. Third and last, NGOs that have difficulty providing records information services should consider the services from an integrated standpoint according to the field of activities and transfer.

시민의 자발적 동기로 조직된 NGO가 생산하는 기록은 시민 사회의 기억이며, 단순한 행정의 산물을 넘어 조직의 존립을 위한 증거로서의 기능을 수행한다. 이 연구는 NGO의 체계적 기록관리를 위한 토대가 되고 온라인 기록정보서비스를 위한 참고자료로 기능하여 시민 사회 활동을 보존하고 기록 이용을 활성화하는 데 기여하고자 UN 경제사회이사회의 협의적 지위를 부여받은 국내외 5,725개의 NGO를 대상으로 온라인 기록정보서비스 현황을 조사하고 이 중 10개의 NGO를 선정하여 온라인 기록정보서비스를 심층 분석하였다. 조사의 결과 실물 및 디지털 아카이브를 제공하는 NGO는 모두 75개로 NGO 온라인 기록정보서비스는 활성화되지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 심층 분석 결과 국내 NGO는 실물 기록의 접근, 기록물 이용 지침을 보완하고 1:1 문의, Q&A, 연구 및 교육 지원 등의 서비스를 운영하여 적극적인 기록정보서비스를 제공할 필요가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 국외 NGO는 온라인 전문 열람 서비스를 확대하고 기록물을 활용한 확장 서비스를 다양화할 필요가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 자체 기록정보서비스가 어려운 NGO는 기록의 이관 및 활동 분야별 통합 기록정보서비스 운영의 고려도 필요함을 확인하였다.
