Trust in government agencies is closely related to accountability. The key strategy to increase public accountability is to document the processes and outcomes of their key tasks and policies adequately. The purpose of this study is to suggest a redesign of the records appraisal policy to enhance the accountability of government agencies. Applying the newly introduced concept of appraisal in ISO 15489-1: 2016, the relationship between accountability and appraisal is articulated and the problems of records appraisal systems in terms of accountability are analyzed. Based on this analysis, it suggests the principles for reforming the appraisal policies well as the redesign of the current disposition authorities as a key tool for appraisal, and the introduction of records disposal freeze system.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the current status and causes of misclassification of school records and to suggest the directions to improve the School Records Management Criteria Table(general disposition authority for school records), which will lead to misclassification reducement. This study begins with analysing the records created or received in four schools sampled for one year to investigate the status and causes of misclassifications. A advisory group including four administrative officers and seven records managers was formed and group meeting was held twice to identify the causes of the misclassification and to suggest alternatives. In this study, 33 unit tasks(transactions) with frequent misclassification were identified, and the cause of misclassification was analyzed based on focus group interviews. The main causes of misclassification were categorized into two types. This study concludes with suggesting the improvement of the School Records Management Criteria Table for addressing the causes, including commentary reinforcement and the addition of workflow to complex tasks.

This paper is an example of records & archival management in Sagamihara City, Japan. The purpose of this paper is to examine the process and main contents of the Japanese record community making 'exemplary records management system' in the region. Specifically, the organization of the Records Management Council, which performs the limited function and role of the 'advisory body', actively utilized the organization of 'local government', which is the main governance organization of municipal administration in the process of regulating the ordinances and related regulations. In this process, related record information at each stage of record management is actively provided to the members of the society. This case is significant in that it presents the "practical view" of the recording community in the reality of the records management in Korea where there is no archive, which is the material foundation of the realization of 'systematic record management'.

The new criteria scheme includes business explanation, preservation period, cause of setting up preservation period and opening information, access authority, keeping records or not. In the past, there were also some regulations and criteria but, records management criteria should be managed systematically and rationally than past in electronic environment. In this study, some previous cases about records management criteria constructing and operating were introduced first. And various characters about records management criteria were reviewed after that, process sample and methodology were proposed for construction of each criteria. If the records management criteria were constructed properly according to goals and objectives of records management and the results were managed through electronic system, the consistency of records management will be kept well and value changes of business and records will be reflected dynamically.

Unless the records appraisal system is properly overhauled, there is no future for public records management. This study aims to highlight challenging issues and present improvement tasks necessary for the readjustment of the public records appraisal system at the national level. First, public records appraisal policies are divided into five categories: i) statements on appraisal policy and selection criteria, ii) appraisal tools such as disposition authorities, iii) subject of appraising, iv) appraisal procedures, and v) responsibility and authority in appraisal and disposition process. Second, the domestic situation is identified for each category. Third, policies of the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada are compared, and implications are derived for each category. Fourth and last, the tasks for the readjustment of the public appraisal system are proposed based on these analyses.

This paper introduces the elaboration of official documents, archival organizations, and the tradition of records in Mongolia from 1694 to 1921. Modern records management began in 1912. Back then, Mongolians had special rules to send and receive official documents, and to register the sent and received official documents. Official documents were used to deliver decrees and policies of the Khan and were used to deal with internal affairs. After their independence in 1911, the traditional documents were collected and preserved. Records managers and archivists were trained by decrees in Mongolia.

Since 2008, the General Archives Authority of Mongolia introduced management standards on international records, such as ISO 15489. GAAM translated the international standards and have trained government records managers with such standards. These international records management standards are also incorporated into the Mongolian records legislations and records management guidance. Complying with the standards are also the requirements for designing records management software in Mongolia.

This study suggests an analysis of the reviews provided by international archival professionals on the RiC-CM draft published by ICA EGAD. Some implications for the Korean archival management environment were also suggested. Some professional reviews were accessible through the internet. Italian archival professionals held workshops at various levels for the analysis and discussion of the draft. Duranti, the project director of InterPARES, also gave opinions about the draft in cluding the perspective of digital preservation. In the review of Artefactual, the draft was discussed in terms of system implementation. Reed, the director of Recordkeeping Innovation, also gave a feedback based on the record management experiences in Australia. Some implications can be suggested based on these professional opinions. First, we should try to build a test bed for the adoption of RiC to archival description in the Korean environment. Second, a minimum level of data elements that can secure authenticity and integrity will also be needed. Third and lastly, rich authority data for agents and functions related to archival records and records groups are essential to take full advantage of the standard.

Although we expect the Records Freezing system to be introduced through the revision of the Public Records Management Act, the system alone has limitations in preventing illegal disposal of records. If some records have already been destroyed illegally, the agency should identify the reason and prepare corrective action and improvement measures to prevent the repetition of such a wrongful disposal. The purpose of this study is to analyze the NARA's inspection program for unauthorized disposal based on the "Records Management Oversight and Reporting Program" and to find implications for improving the control system of public records disposal. NARA's program is particularly effective in the prevention and post-processing of unauthorized disposal. In this study, firstly, the federal records management oversight and reporting program in the United States was investigated in the legal system. Secondly, the status of NARA's control of unauthorized disposal cases was reviewed and a case of SEC's MUI records was analyzed for showing the systematic procedure of NARA's inspection. Finally, we have summed up the implications of this program for improving NAK's control system of illegal disposal of public records.
