This study reviewed how the appraisal process of the research records of the cases of Australia and the United States can be planed and managed. As the records schedule includes the list of core records and the appropriate disposal instructions, as well as the fact that it is a critical records management tool, the records schedule was considered for the basis of the research records appraisal system. The results of this study are as follows. First, the research records have to be appraised by research project because research is carried out into project units, and records management is effective when combined with the business practice and basic structure of the operating system. Second, the research institutions have to plan and manage one general disposal schedule and plural disposal schedules in the different research divisions. Finally, the characteristics of research style and the research record of each research institution should be recognized. Moreover, there is a need to link the research appraisal process of each research institution and the national records management system because the research records of public research institutions are public goods. Although various cases were not analyzed, this study is significant that the meaning and role of the research records schedule was reorganized. Also, a discriminatory records schedule according to the characteristics of research records was suggested.

The study aims to analyze the records management reference tables currently being utilized and to provide directions on how should be redesigned in the future to operate as a appraisal tool for national archives. From the perspective of "what records should be the national archives", it was intended to analyze the records management reference tables, particularly in the environmental public authorities, and to propose future improvements. The main focus of the analysis is on appraising records that need to be preserved as national archives, and therefore, prior to analysis of the tables, it examines whether the archival selection criteria are clearly presented. Subsequently, the study is conducted how to implement this criteria through the records management reference table of each agency and how its implementation system will be constructed. The analysis will be focused on Ministry of Environment's records management reference table and records schedules or appraisal/selection tools of the central and federal institutions that perform environmental functions in U.S., Australia, and UK.

In the electronic record environment, there are discussions about the necessity of using records as information, and ISO 15489:2016 defines records as one of the information assets. In acceptance of this concept of information assets, the national archives of each country have established related policies and guidelines to actively promote information asset management. This paper intends to analyze the information asset management policies and guidelines that are established by the national archives of each country. This is to identify global trends for information assetization of records in the digital environment and derive benchmarking factors for seeking institutional establishment in Korea. To this end, the definition of records in ISO standards and related research results are analyzed to investigate the conceptual origins of information assets. Moreover, the actual cases about information asset management of the national archives of the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Australia are investigated. Based on this, the implications of overseas cases and issues to be supplemented to establish the relationship between records and information assets are presented as a part of seeking institutional establishment in Korea.

This paper examines the significance of records as knowledge information resources that are illuminated by the electronic record environment nowadays based on existing research results and examples. As the production mode of records changes, it is possible to avoid the tendency to prioritize historical and cultural values when keeping records. In addition, according to the change of the operating mode and the work pattern of an organization, the value of knowledge information resource is also important. For this purpose, this paper reviews the recent changes in the work environment in Chapter 2 and then examines attributes not only as evidence but also as information. Based on these discussions, the paper explores the relationship between the records and the information that has been discussed in western academic circles since the 1980s in Chapter 3. With this, it also analyzes the correlation between record management and knowledge management. In Chapter 4, it reviews recent trends to link records management and knowledge management in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. In addition to the current state of public records management in Korea, this paper presents the direction of institutional improvement in three aspects.

The Records Disposal Freeze Program will be introduced in June 2020 with the revision of the Public Records Act of South Korea. In the study, the issues of the program were identified through the analysis of domestic cases and the programs of other countries, and the improvement plans on the issues were suggested. For the analysis of the programs, seven factors which should be presented to implement the program were derived from the notices of disposal freeze by National Archives of Australia. Based on the factors, the programs were analyzed; the programs of South Korea, the United States of America, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. As a result of analysis and comparison of the programs, five issues of Korean program were derived. The experts interviews were conducted to understand the perception and the perspective on the program of records managers and archivists.

As the importance and proportion of electronic records increases in the public sector, the necessity for variable types of records management has strengthened. Elements of records management metadata standards, which were provided in 2007 by the National Archives of Korea, focused mainly on text-centered records management standards. Therefore an extension of elements which can represent diverse types of electronic records is needed. In this study, metadata elements focusing on image records are suggested. For this, the characteristics of image records are investigated and the Australian government recordkeeping metadata standard and the PREMIS data dictionary, which have been recently modified, are analyzed. Through this, four elements, format, significant properties, environment, and coverage are suggested to fortify the current records management standard.

As the amount of digital collections has been increasing, a new approach is needed to improve access to records. Interactive visualization allows users to more easily browse and navigate across large collections. Cultural heritage institutions in the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia introduced interactive visualization techniques to diversify ways by which to access archival records. This study aims to propose a method for applying interactive visualization to archival collections. It began with an analysis of interactive visualization cases in overseas cultural heritage institutions. Based on the analysis, a visualization of the collections held by the National Archives of Korea using various interactive visualization techniques was suggested.

In Korea, a master plan for records management standardization has been established and implemented by National Archives of Korea in a short manner comparing with other countries which pursued the standardization gradually in a long-range policy. But many standards developed under the plan has being criticized in terms of standards quality and their effectiveness by records managers in public sectors. According to the needs of systematic standardization strategy development to overcome the problems, it proposes a model for developing standardization strategy for records management, which is considering strategic goles, principles and 4 strategy areas to be reformulated. This model suggests the directions to select appropriate targets and priorities to be standardized, and to improve standardization procedure and policy framework as standardizing strategy's key points.
