The thesaurus can control the headings in a classification scheme and can serve as an index of the classification scheme itself. In records management, the thesaurus controls functional terms and expands the access point of search to complement the functional classification scheme. In recent years, ISO 25964, the international standard for thesaurus construction, has been revised because of changes in the information environment and the development of thesaurus construction and utilization systems. Part 1 of ISO 15489, the international standard for overall records management, was also amended in 2016. In addition, the Integrated Public Sector Vocabulary (IPSV) in the UK, EuroVoc in Europe, and Functions of New Zealand (FONZ) in New Zealand have been effectively building and linking thesauri to reflect recent trends. In this study, we propose a thesaurus construction guideline for systematic record management in terms of related standards and cases, and suggest an improvement plan for the thesaurus construction guideline in Korea.

The purpose of this study is to develop a thesaurus for women's oral history in modern Korea. Literature review and case studies for four thesauri were performed for this study with which a thesaurus was built based upon the index terms in oral history records. The process of developing the thesaurus consisted of five steps. First, there are 1,784 index terms from the oral history records by 53 modern Korean women were extracted and analyzed. Second, possible terms for the thesaurus were selected through regular meetings with experts in the fields of information organization and women's oral history. Third, relationships between terms were defined by focusing on equivalence, hierarchy, and association. Fourth, after developing a Web-based thesaurus management system, terms and relationships were input to the system. Fifth, terms and relationships were again reviewed by experts from the relevant fields. As a result, the thesaurus comprise of 1,076 terms and those terms were classified to 39 broad subject areas, including proper nouns, such as geographic names, places, person's names, corporate names, and others, and it will be expanded with more oral history records from other people during the same period.

Although ISO 25964-2 was introduced in 2013, existing research about it that can be used for analysis and basis for its application is scarce. This study analyzed the interoperability of vocabularies emphasized in ISO 25964-2. First, this study examined the mapping types of the concept sharing method. In addition, based on the mapping types, this study sought for and examined the interoperability method between a thesaurus and ontology. Lastly, this study has suggested a thesaurus and ontology interoperability model and designed and constructed an ontology model for administrative department names in Korea to verify the possible of the model.

To search based on the functional classification or provenance is not easy for users, and the key word-based information retrieval presents only simple words matching with the title of the records. The Presidential Archive of Korea developed a subject classification scheme to improve the convenience of searching for various records and came up with a subject thesaurus based on the scheme that utilizes the terms appearing on the title of the records and the terms used by the users who searched the portal or requested information disclosure. This research presents the development process of subject thesaurus. It also presents the utilization methods for records management work and services.

Some issues and solutions considered for the various situations that we faced in the process of developing guidelines of thesaurus construction are described in this paper. There were many proper names and proper nouns among the terms considered in the process. The thesaurus needed to include a function of an authority file. Preferred terms were selected based on what the university's official records would use. The scope of the proper names for inclusion was the people who held official positions in the university and the people who were the subject of the materials. However, when the system allows synthesized retrieval of the field of creator and donor, inclusion of too many names were considered unnecessary.

The classification in the Records and Archives Sciences focuses on the contextual information in producing and utilizing records rather than their contents. This study aimed at designing an automatic records classification system to enable an automatic classification focusing on the aggregation of the context of records rather than the contents of individual record in the classification scheme, structured on the basis of business activities analyses for records reflecting the business activities. The automatic records classification system was designed to have mutual supplements by constructing the classification scheme and thesaurus together as the classification reference, as well as the aggregation of records that have been already classified. Additionally included are plans to apply the classified contextual information of records to the classification reference on the real-time base right after the category assignment of records to be classified. Although there are limitations as the designed system depends on the quality of the contextual information, it is considered that the system could lead to ensure that the contextual information of records should be more substantial.

Oral history is the work to make the record of the verbal content recreated by the memories of the survivors. Oral history recording is accomplished through the collaboration of the interviewee, the interviewer, the cameraman, the recorder, the transcriber and etc. Therefore, it is important for the context at the time of the production to be expressed. So planning for the collection of oral records, the collection of oral records, and their preservation and maintenance should be managed systematically. This study, being started from this sense of problem, designed conceptual model of metadata to well reflect the contextual characteristics of the oral records of the women life of among the oral records and extracted the elements through this. The whole process of records management including from planning, production, preservation, management, and leading to use, related to the oral records of the women life, was classified into a hierarchy. It also proposed the system which can express the characteristics of the 'gender' through authority records and subject thesaurus.

This study designed a data model linked to Wikidata and examined its applicability to increase the utilization of the digital archive records of the National Debt Redemption Movement, registered as World Memory Heritage, and implications were derived by analyzing the existing metadata, thesaurus, and semantic network graph. Through analysis of the original text of the National Debt Redemption Movement records, key data model classes for linking with Wikidata, such as record item, agent, time, place, and event, were derived. In addition, by identifying core properties for linking between classes and applying the designed data model to actual records, the possibility of acquiring abundant related information was confirmed through movement between classes centered on properties. Thus, this study's result showed that Wikidata's strengths could be utilized to increase data usage in local archives where the scale and management of data are relatively small. Therefore, it can be considered for application in a small-scale archive similar to the National Debt Redemption Movement digital archive.
