This study examines the current status of national & public university archives management, focusing on Busan and Gyeongnam area. Because national public universities create public records, they must compulsorily execute the law, Public Records and Archives Act. However revised Public Records and Archives Act isn't reflected the peculiarity of university archives and the national and public universities are to be transferred to government archive.

본 연구는 기록물관리법 시행과 함께 대학자료관 설치가 의무화되고 있는 시점에서 자료관의 불필요한 중복을 피하고, 규모 및 기능 등을 구체화하기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 대학자료관 설치를 통한 효율적인 대학기록물 보존을 위해서는 중장기적인 발전계획의 수립과 유사기능을 갖는 도서관 및 박물관등에서 이루어지고 있는 대학기록물 및 보존환경 등에 대한 충분한 검토가 이루어져야 한다. 이는 여러 곳에서 기록물을 가지고 있다고 하더라도 관리의 측면에서는 이들 모두 대학 기록물로서의 일부를 이루기 때문이다. 특히 지방대학의 경우 현실적인 여건을 극복하기 위하여 기관 내 유사기능 기관들과 또는 지역 내 대학간 협력을 통해 기록물의 정보를 서로 공유하고 활용할 수 있는 효과적인 기능수행을 모색할 필요성이 있다.

This paper examines urgent issues of establishing the presidential library in relation to the current standing of the Government Archives and Records Service. As government records have been tremendously accumulated every year, the Government Archives and Records Service will be full within three years, which indicates that the constructing of new storage repositories is an emergent issue. In addition, presidential records are one of the most significant and influential public properties for preserving historical value and interpretation at the national level. Some serious concerns relating to the presidential library are raised for consideration. First of all, it is compulsory to preserve presidential records and to construct the presidential library. Second, the presidential library performs a variety of functions including the acquisition, preservation, access, reference, research, education, and display of presidential records as well as exhibits of public activities and administration personally and in public during the president' regime. A new presidential library should function as both of a depository and museum of presidential records through systematic arrangement and display. Thus a new repository of the Government Archives and Records Service should be co-constructed with the presidential library within the same boundary. Third, a newly constructed presidential library should be at least double- or triple- sized more than estimated in order to contain all related holdings. Fourth, to take custody of public records across the legislature, judiciary and administration, the Government Archives and Records Service should be directed by an official at the level of vice-minister and upgraded to an independent office such as "National Archives and Records Administration." Fifth, the presidential library's location and surrounding environments should be selected with careful planning.

This study evaluated the implementation of preservation functions and the degree of implementation in standard records management systems (SRMS) for public agencies. For evaluation, it identified digital preservation activities by analyzing legislation and standards for public records management, especially functional requirements for records management system. Compared to these, it pre-evaluated the functions that SRMS claims to be implemented. It was found that preservation functions implemented in SRMS mainly focuses on migration to standard format. A checklist was made based on the adjusted scope by reflecting the result of pre-evaluation and was distributed to record managers who work for public agencies. This study found that the preservation functions were relatively compliant with the functional requirement for records management system for public agencies, but the way of implementation hardly support records managers of public agencies. The preservation functions of SRMS must be improved or be reconsidered based on the results and further studies.
