This study focuses on establishing a base for approaching record disposition schedules, which may be felt unfamiliar, through the overview of record disposition schedules. For this purpose, this study examined the meaning of record disposition schedules, the significance and principle of their elements, and their operation. In addition, it presented tasks to perform for record disposition schedules to play a central role of record management in the future. This study showed that record disposition schedules authorize people to control and process records, and are closely related to the development and the stability of record disposition system in Korea. What is more, it proved that record disposition schedules enable the assessment of the historical values of records, so it is possible to maintain records from the perspective of historical records. Besides, record disposition schedules are important in that they contain information on organizations and their functions, based on which we can preserve and manage extrinsic information about records.

This study explores the transfer of defunct school records (by preservation period, type, and place of transfer) in South Korea since the Public Records Management Act was enacted in 1999 and suggests improvements. Metropolitan and provincial offices of education, totaling 17, were asked to disclose information about the status of defunct school records. Since 1999, 1,411 schools nationwide have closed permanently, predominantly elementary schools, followed by high then middle schools. By preservation period, there were more records in the 1 to 10-year category than in the 30-year to permanent category. By record type, most were electronic records, followed by paper records, archival objects, and audiovisual records. By place of transfer, most nonelectronic records were transferred to integrated schools, and most electronic records were transferred to the Records Management System. In-depth interviews with 10 record managers from local education offices found that the management of defunct school records varies widely by region and institution because of the lack of specified manuals. Participants also reported difficulties in transferring web-based records, archival objects, and audiovisual records, as well as insufficient archival space and computer systems. This study also provides suggestions to improve the management of defunct school records, such as establishing specified manuals, creating a dedicated government department for managing defunct school records, deploying workforces, and improving computer systems.

The recent demographic cliff caused the schooling population to steadily decline and the number of college admissions to sharply drop, which led to the prediction of the Ministry of Education wherein 38 universities in Korea will be closed within the next 3 years. As such, the legal, administrative, historical, and informational values of university records shed light on the importance of the follow-up process and management of closed university records. Although closed university records need to be systematically managed according to legal procedures similar to other public records, there is no practical and clear legal standard for the management of such records at present. Moreover, management standards considering the characteristics of (closed) university records and individual universities' situations and specificity have been insufficient. This study, therefore, examines the ambiguous standards for closed university records management and analyzed relevant problems. Furthermore, an integrated management system is suggested as a way to improve the records management of closed universities.

본 연구는 다양한 '계층' 및 '목적'을 위한 기록 콘텐츠가 주목받고 있다는 전제하에 이용자들의 기록물 '활용'과정 연구 확대의 필요성과 더불어, 생활사 관련 기록물 활용의 중요성에 주안점을 두고 있다. 이에 방송관련 전공자 및 종사자들의 "국가기록원" 의식주(衣食住) 콘텐츠 활용 과정을 조사하였다. 즉, 연구 참여자들을 대상으로 심층면담을 진행 하여 기록물을 토대로 방송 콘텐츠 기획으로 연결되는 과정을 분석하였다. 연구결과로서 방송 콘텐츠 아이디어로 연결 되는 과정에서 7가지 '가치'요인이 식별되었다. 연구결과의 시사점으로서 기록물 선별 과정 및 기록물 설명 작성에 있어서 '가치'요인을 고려해야 할 필요성을 제시하였다.

This paper surveyed the research trends in archival appraisal science in Korea. All 33 articles from 4 relevant academic journals articles were analysed on the basis of quantitative measurement and thematic sorting. The number of the articles by the record managers or archivists working at the public bodies has especially decreased for some time past. A distinguishing feature was a decline in interest in the present appraisal system and methodology. Correspondence between practice and academic theory be required for the future development in archival appraisal.
