In this paper, I applied known theories of appraisal and re-appraisal to the Japanese Colonial Archives and the Colonial City Planing Archives in Korea. The purpose of this application to some of sample archives was to develop a useful and effective approach to appraise the archives which were not appraised before they were determined to be "permanent" archives by the Japanese colonial officials. The colonial archives have lost their context and "chain of custody." A large portion of their volume also disappeared. Only thirty thousands volumes survived. The appraisal theories and related issues applied to and tested on these archives are; "original natures" of archives defined by Sir. Hillary Jenkinson, Schellenburg's information value appraisal theory, the re-appraisal theory based on economy of preservation and prospect for use of the archives, function-based appraisal theory and documentation theory, the special nature of the archives as unique, old and rare colonial archives, the intrinsic value of the archives, especially the city planing maps and drawings, and finally, the determination of the city planing archives as permanent archives according to the contemporary and modern disposal authority. The colonial archives tested were not naturally self-proven authentic and trustworthy records as many other archives are. They lost their chain of custody and they do not guarantee the authenticity and sincerity of the producers. They need to be examined and reviewed critically before they are used as historical evidence or any material which documented the contemporary society. Rapport's re-appraisal theory simply does not fit into these rare historical archives. The colonial archives have intrinsic values. Though these archives represent some aspects of the colonial society, they can not document the colonial society since they are just survived remains or a little part of the whole archives created. The functions and the structure of the Government General of Korea(朝鮮總督府) were not fully studied yet and hardly can be used to determine the archival values of the archives created in some parts of the colonial apparatus. The actual appraisal methods proved to be effective in the case of colonial archives was Schellenburg's information value appraisal theory. The contextual and content information of the colonial archives were analysed and reconstructed. The appraisal works also resulted in full descriptions of the colonial archives which were never described before in terms of archival principles.

한국의 근현대 천문학은 조선시대 관상감의 명맥을 잇고 천문학의 현대화를 이루는 과정에서 역사적이고 문화적인 자료를 남겼다. 그 중 국립천문대를 거쳐 한국천문연구원에 이르기까지 주요 연구 결과물은 국가적 차원에서 보존해야 할 가치 있는 기록물들이다. 이들은 연구 환경변화의 주요 인물과 스토리까지 포괄하고 있으므로 그 과정에서 파생된 소산물도 체계적으로 조직화하여 대중에게 서비스할 필요가 있다. 이 기획 연구는 도큐멘테이션 전략과 사료 콘텐츠 세트 개발 방법론을 활용하여 한국 근현대 천문학 기록물을 수집하고 주제별로 재가공하는 절차를 제시한다. 도큐멘테이션 전략은 국내외에 산발적으로 분산된 한국 근현대 천문 사료의 유형과 지역 등 편중성을 가려내어 중복된 기록물은 걸러내고 희소성 높은 기록물을 선별하여 수집하는 방법론이다. 천문 사료 콘텐츠 세트는 한국천문학사의 주요 인물과 천문대 등 학술적, 문화적으로 가치 있는 주제를 중심으로 본(本) 기록물과 연관 기록물을 맥락적으로 관리 서비스할 수 있는 방법론이다. 이 연구를 통하여 초중등 교과 과정이나 유관 기관과 서비스를 연동하여 한국천문지식정보의 범용화와 천문 아카이브에 대한 대중의 접근 편의를 도모할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper is a study on the concept and methodology of documentation storytelling. After 'use of records' has emerged as a hot topic in the archivologic field, various methodologies are being sought for utilization. Storytelling is one of them. This study defines storytelling as a methodology for the utilization of records as 'documentation storytelling' and conceptualizes it as 'the totality of various discourses generated in the process of realizing the value of records as records'. This study introduces various theories such as archiving, storytelling, semiotics, and linguistics to establish the foundation of the theory of documentation storytelling. Archivology in the digital era ,conceived by the analog era, has the task of systematizing the academic trends of the two eras. One of the tasks is about documentation in the digital age. Documentation storytelling is also a theory required in the digital age. This study defines 'documentation' in the digital age as a variable and practical act, and defines the result of documentation as 'documentation storytelling', that is, 'a semiosis in which the value of records is constantly created'.

유구한 전통을 배경으로 우리나라는 유네스코 세계기록유산을 세계 4위, 아시아 1위로 등재하여 기록물의 가치를 국제적으로 인정받고 있다. 이제는 세계 기록유산 16건이라는 등재 수량을 넘어, 활용도 증진을 통한 명실상부 질적 차원의 우수 세계 기록유산 보유국가로 성장해야 할 시기를 맞고 있다. 이러한 측면에서 기록유산의보편적 접근과 활용의 증진을 목적으로 하는 국제기록유산센터(ICDH, International Centre for Documentary Heritage)의 2019년 청주시 유치는 시사하는 바가 크다. 또 정부가 세계 기록유산의 다양한 활용 제고를 위한 지자체 협업 사업을 지원하기 시작한 것도 유의할만하다. 그러나 한국 천문학 분야에서는 세계 기록유산이 한 건도 지정되지 않아 우리나라의 우수한 과학적 성취가 담긴 사료들은 알려지지 않고 있으며, 체계적인 관리·보존도 미비한 상태다. 이에 이 연구는 한국 천문학 기록자원의 세계 기록유산 발굴과 등재 및 등재 이후 활용 증진을 위한 아웃리치 서비스의 방법론을 제언하는 데 목적을 가지며 다음 기획론을 제시하고자 한다. 먼저 한국 천문학 기록자원의 세계 기록유산 발굴을 위하여 유네스코의 등재평가기준과 참고할만한 등재과정의 선행사례를 분석한다. 다음으로, 등재 이후 정·관·학 협업의 체계적 관리보존과 공유체계를수립하는 방안을 모색하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 소장처와협업체간 분쟁의 소지가 될 수 있는 저작권 등 위험 요소와 참고할만한 국내외 협업의 선진사례를 분석한다. 마지막으로 한국 천문학계의 요구와 현실에 부합하는 기록학적방법론을 분석하여 한국 천문학 분야 세계 기록유산의 아웃리치서비스 방안을 제언하고자 한다. 이 연구는 천문학 분야에서 망실·훼손될 수 있는 기록 자원을 발굴하는 계기를 세계 기록유산에서 찾아, 천문학계에 새로운 연구의 장(場)을 창출하는 선순환을 도모했다는 점에서 의의가 있다. 그러나 선험적 기획이므로 과정상 발생할 수 있는 변수의 대처 방안과 유의성 분석 등 연구 결과 검증에는 한계가 있다. 향후 한국 천문학과의 협업으로 세계 기록유산과 관련한 사료 발굴과 가치 고증 등 학술적 이론 검증을 이어나가 다양한 학제 간 연구로 심화하길 기대한다.

In recent time, archival science has been in charge of positively preserving and handling with valuable things, as well as managing established ones, However, even though several archival methodologies that manage contexts among tasks, organizations and subjects exist nowadays, there is a lack of theoretical methodology on archiving focusing on valuable things. In this sense, this article dealt with a theoretical methodology which carries out archiving valuable things and represents it based on the value of records. Also, this paper, which covers a methodology that carries out archiving and representing one focusing on the value of the one to preserve, is divided into three chapters: putting in, managing, and viewing. To begin with, in the chapter of purring in, the methodology of documentation based on a strategy to distinguish and represent the value of the valuable things were explained. In addition, the article tried to explain the definition of how the valuable things based on the value of it can be put in, and presented how to divide the one for representation into the objet and the activity so as to provide an effective approach. At the same time, as this paper took an approach to the value of the one, it proposed a way to be able to do archiving effectively by applying a representation unit which has its own value. Secondly, in the chapter of managing, representation class and metadata for managing with a representable structure was considered. Metadata categories were illustrated in order to present the class from individual records to final representation valuable things and to make representation with ease. Furthermore, in the chapter of viewing, the process of representation using theoretically archived records was explained. In fact, viewing is the descriptive domain in general, yet this paper focused on the conceptional part. As a consequence, in this paper, a series of process was considered, which starts from how the subject of representation was archived to managing it. Moreover, the process has a meaning by itself in that it gives a practical method to be applied. Finally, the paper suggested that the argumentation on representation be expanded in the field of archival science so as to present theoretical grounds in this sort of work.

Archival appraisal has been a significant field and demanding task in thoughts and practice about modern archive, in particular, because of insufficiency of resources for the preservation in comparison with the large scale of recorded information. Appraising records does naturally go with the selecting and acquiring them. In the field of appraisal, however, comprehensive accountability on appraisal is much more important than selection and acquisition. The purpose of this study is the proposition of the theoretic approach to the analysis of the factors concerning the archival appraisal. For this purpose, I would try not the actual practice of the archival appraisal but theoretical categories of archival appraisal decision. The archival Characteristic, Value, and Context will be proposed as theoretical categories for the analysis of archival appraisal decision. Firstly, Characteristic category makes it clear to identify the reliable and authentic records, and then, Value provides us with elucidation about the appraisers' recognition of values. Lastly, Context explains the priority of selection throughout creating, using, interrelationship, and social meaning of archives.

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.

This thesis is performed to suggest an objective and effective optimization plan of appraisal for archival values. Even though saving all of archives and records and passing them to descendants would be a strong preservation method, but preservation expenses cannot be ignored. Additionally the appraisal for archives is completed by selecting and preserving high-value records, preserving all of records seems not to be effective. In this aspects archivists have tried to find the appraisal standard to ensure the objectivity of it, however, existing studies cannot bring out positive method because of focusing on analyzing only theoretical analysis on appraisal. This study divides appraisal for archives in 3 steps; inquiry for the records creators, appraisal of archivists, appraisal of appraisal experts, and suggests the standard to increase objectivity and confidency of appraisal. The optimization plan of appraisal for archival values with the results of this thesis would influence on the revitalization of reappraisal for the archives in repository and archive of Korea.

Community creates, receives and preserves the records, which made the community members and the entire society remember their history. As for community archives, archival appraisal is very political activity because appraisal of community records means whose memory remain alive in history. This study aims to analyze archival appraisal theories from the perspective of community and community archives, and suggest appraisal model for community archives. This study begins with examining the meaning of community archives and appraisal related issues including; i) community identity and independence of archives, ii) struggle of memory and multiple narratives, iii) uniqueness of each community and its archives, and iv) community archives as memory process and social inclusion. At the next stage, it deals with the archival theories from Schellenberg's archival values theory to macro-appraisal, to investigate possible application of theories for community records appraisal. It finds that the societal approach of macro-appraisal have advantage to appraise the community records. This study finally suggests the appraisal model for community archives by modifying the macro-appraisal components as well as by complying the principles of community archives. The model consists of the purpose and object of appraisal, principle and basis of valuation, and cooperation model between mainstream repository and community.
