From the beginning of the enactment and implementation of the Public Records Management Act, there has been a steady discussion on the establishment of local archives. Local archives include not only administrative records of local governments, but also private archives such as containing the lives of residents. Along with the academic discussion, there have been movements for local autonomy and decentralization. Currently, interest and discussion on private archiving are in the historical flow. In addition, private archiving has become a social concern because of the establishment of systems such as the Public Records Management Act and the Information Disclosure Act, the establishment of a digital environment, and the spread of the meaning and value of village community activities. There are several government agencies related to private archiving, and the grounds for performing their work are different, and there are many central administrative agencies to which they belong. Therefore, I propose that the National Archives take the lead and form a 'Consortium of Private archives Management Institutions'. The organization should promote first, cooperation of collection information and archives, second, coordination of tasks and functions between institutions, and third, establishment of a nationwide private archives management system. Now is our chance. Instead of reacting on an ad hoc basis, respond systematically with a long-term perspective.

Twenty years after the Records Managemen Act was first enacted, the archiving environment has changed a lot. The advent of the electronic records environment, the importance of presidential records management, and the importance of managing private records have been a direct background to the 2006 revision of the Records Management Act. The field of electronic records management and the field of presidential records management have challenges and limitations, but have been steadily developing. However, in the private sector, archiving has not changed significantly compared to the voluntary activity. Now the maeul-community is calling for a response from the records management community. A society develops when the private and public sectors cooperate with each other and form healthy check-ups. In the archiving field, it must also become active through cooperation.

In 2015, Korean government announced revisions of the Archives Law in order to boost uses of commercial records facilities by public institutions. As key concepts were unclear and understandings among stake-holders varied, a considerable degree of chaos and anxiety aroused. The amendment itself was held at National Assembly. The unresolved disputes rested, however, waiting for another attempt of similar nature. As the recognition propelled this paper, it aimed at reviewing major contending arguments and proposing future actions.

The discussion on local archives management institutions started in the early 2000s and has been steady. In the law, local records management institutions first appeared in 1999, and in 2007, the establishment of local records management institutions by local governments became compulsory. The archival institutions of local government, however, were actually founded in the Gyeongnam Province, 2018, and in the Seoul City, 2019, over 10 years after the revision of the law. And as of 2021, various local governments, including Gyeonggi-do, are conducting research to establish local archives management institutions. This is the time when domestic records management institutions are introduced in earnest. However, it is still unclear how regional archives will operate in practice, particularly how they will accommodate the management of private archives, which has long been regarded as the mission of regional archives. In this thesis, the past discussions on the local record management institutions will be reviewed focusing on private record management. In this regard, it is intended to examine the current state of private records management of local records management institutions through the current status of local records management institutions in operation, and to seek directions for local records management institutions based on this.
