  • The beginning of digitization activities in the National Library of the Czech Republic are interconnected with the first periods of existence of the UNESCO Memory of the World programme. It was in 1992 when the library accepted the UNESCO proposal to prepare a pilot CD ROM publication for the programme showing the most precious items from its collections. In 1993 - 1995, the publication was followed by two another titles, which presented two medieval manuscripts in their entirety, providing both all the image documentation and scientific description of various features of the original documents. The digitization centre specialized in processing of old manuscripts and old printed books in co operation with the Czech AIP Beroun Company. Nowadays, these two national programmes in which dozens of Czech and also several foreign institutions take part - are represented on their access side by two digital libraries: Manuscriptorium and Kramerius.

  • This study aims to discuss the issues of the detailed criteria of information subject to nondisclosure of the current National Assembly Information Disclosure Regulations and provide alternative strategies for the issues. As a theoretical study, the relevant previous studies were analyzed, the history of the National Assembly Information Disclosure Regulations was summarized, and the legal and institutional concept of the detailed criteria was discussed. Subsequently, the detailed criteria were analyzed in three aspects, namely, composition, operation, and content. For this analysis, opinions were collected by conducting interviews with five experts related to information disclosure at the National Assembly. In conclusion, the study provides alternative strategies, including a comprehensive revision of the National Assembly Information Disclosure Regulations, the necessity of revising detailed criteria, and the formation of a temporary specialized organization for revising detailed criteria.

  • Publication Information Dissemination Guidance(P.I.D.G.), in which a public organization opens it's information to the public in advance of requests, could be an appropriate medium to support the good governance. In other words, good governance could be established by adopting P.I.D.G. to guarantee the accessibility and usability of information to a public organization, to arrange an opportunity for conversation with the people, and eventually promote the participation of people in administration. However, the P.I.D.G. is not well-known among people due to lack of nation-wide advertisement, and a number of multi-laterally found flaws in the system operation, suggesting an urgent need of improvement. Disorders are found in the operation of P.I.D.G. due to un-standardized categories among the standards of Publication Information Dissemination, set by administrative organizations. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the P.I.D.G. and suggest the ways to improve it based on the criteria indicated above.

  • The main purpose of this study is to analyze the educational effectiveness of historical thinking contents through the experimentation methodology. The procedures of this study will review foreign and domestic historical thinking cases of archival contents for history education; derive some implications from the review; and apply the implications to classes targeted for first year high school students. It can be said that classes utilizing historical thinking contents have beneficial effects on the subcategories of historical thinking, that is, chronology comprehension ability, historical inquiry ability, historical imagination, and historical judgment ability. The average between before and after examination results shows a statistically meaningful difference. In addition, this study shows that students obtain better scores after examination than before.

  • This study aims to present the reorganization plan for the effective operation of the Information Disclosure System by researching on problems with regard to the system's actual operation. For that purpose, this study has examined issues by conducting an investigation regarding a survey by personnel in charge of the system as well as the status of the Information Disclosure System in central administrative agencies. By examining the issues presented, a number of problems were identified for which this study suggests plans for solutions. The solutions proposed in this study are as follows: a) all agencies must establish a department dedicated to information disclosure and improve their system to meet any increase in the amount of work by flexibly allocating human resources according to the workload, b) a uniform and standardized operation guide must be created, c) education programs with regard to the original Information Disclosure System should be expanded, and d) so on.

  • User needs and their usage motivations are critical components of web portal success, yet limited studies have been conducted with the constituents of good cultural heritage archive portals from the user perspective. This study proposes a quality assessment model from the user perspective. To overcome the intrinsic biases, the triangulation approach was chosen for building a research model. The proposed research model adapts three existing web portal quality models: service quality model, data quality model, and technology acceptance model. A 99-item instrument is suggested to investigate the proposed model. In the next phase of research, the instrument will be tested for its construct validity, and the research model will be empirically tested.

  • UNESCO clearly has a good user interface compared to other sites. However, it does not have a structure in which user-centric knowledge curating is employed by users. As such, the knowledge structure should be expressed differently in advance for users to enjoy such benefits. At present, almost all current information systems are lacking with semantic and contextual information. Moreover, these systems are deemed insufficient of interlinking various kinds of thoughts in our minds. Thus, it is necessary to model in advance what users are likely to think and provide an interface that they can easily utilize based on that modeling. Furthermore, there is a need for a new structural theory based on semantic technology that can make that possible. Therefore, in this proposal, theoretical and practical insights were presented for user interface implementation to which relational facet navigation based on the structural theory is applied. Moreover, this proposal intends to suggest a "thinking expansion platform" that allows users' ideation of different concepts, including those unfamiliar to them.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate factors affecting the use of modern photographic records. Data was collected through a survey of 95 potential users for photographic records in future. Independent variables in this study included evidential value, informational value, usage value, intrinsic value. Dependent variable was selected as use intention for photographic records. The results of analysis of multi-regression analysis showed that evidential value and intrinsic value were found to have a positive impact on use intention for photographic records in modern korea. The results from this study can be used as important basic data for building archives for photographic record or for developing the policy for effective photographic records management.

  • The personal praying sentence in personal praying scripts of Koryo Dynasty should be very important source for study of Koryo buddhism's history as well as historics, bibliographics and art historics. Especially it would be good source for study of official position in Koryo Dynasty because in the personal praying scripts the prayers expressed their own official position when compared to the official positions presented in Bekguanji(all officer's magazine) in Koryosa(history of Koryo Dynasty). As the characteristic of script is presented in the contents of personal praying sentence, it would be remarkable source for study on the history of buddhism's thought. Through the personal praying sentence it is possible to make clear the hopes of donor and high monks who were the key members for writing praying script. Also study on the personal praying sentences in Koryo scripts would be helpful for understanding the profile of society of Koryo Dynasty.
