Archival appraisal is a key area of archival science. This study aims to identify the knowledge structure of archival appraisal and propose appropriate translation terms. To this end, 34 entry terms related to archival appraisal were first extracted from 146 entries in the Encyclopedia of Archival Science, a leading encyclopedia in the field, and terminologies were categorized based on content analysis. Second, the contents described in the entries were assessed for each category, and the main concepts and flow of discussions were also examined. Third and last, suitable translations for each entry term were presented, and considerations were suggested for the translations, such as the application of appropriate principles of equivalence.

This study focuses on resetting the direction of the universities' accountability introducing the notion of accountability which is a new paradigm in the setting of records management.. First, we analyze the notion and structure of accountability, and then demonstrate the need of accountability in the university. And we try to deduce factors for accountability through cases of foreign universities. Based on this, we analyze the present status of records management of domestic universities. Based on the results of analysis, this study suggests several proposals. First, university records need to be reset. Second, regulations related to tasks in the university should be improved. Third, the function of university archives should be strengthened. Forth, the process of university records management should be reset. Fifth, in order to settle down accountability of the university in a right way, proper systems and procedures to regulate it are necessary so that the university can perform accountability properly outside the university.

The archives preservation chamber is an equipment that is able to store important archives with air-cleaning and isothermal-isohumidity control functions to permanently store archives in a highly safe environment. The chamber can only store small amounts of archives but it is crucial for organizations preserving archives to economically store a variety of archives, be it a medium or a small amount of documents. An arm of this study researches the current preservation status of the local record center to determine the need for such a chamber. In addition, in order to improve the air-cleaning and isothermal-isohumidity functions, the researchers of this study have conducted analyses to design the core parts. The preservation chamber that had been designed includes an archives preservation area, air-cleaning equipment, and environment measurement equipment. A preservation chamber is used to preserve small amounts of important archives safely. Thus, when a local record center is preserving various types of archives in small or medium quantities in a stack room, the preservation chamber can be used to aid their long-term preservation.
