This paper examines the importance, types, and locations of maul records, and the methods for collecting, preserving, and using them. Maul records reveal the nature of the residents' ordinary lives, help to closely examine the history and culture of the maul, and serve as cultural resources that supplement oral records. Collecting materials from maul records requires understanding the types, locations, and states of the records. Maul records should include records created by the local organizations, personal records by individuals, and records that evidence the history of the maul. The collection methods of maul records are categorized into regular collection, irregular collection, passive collection, and active collection. These records need to be locally conserved in the maul. They can enhance the residents' lives, and can be used to help produce books, posters, calendars, commercial advertisements, symbols, academic education, exhibitions, digital contents, and historical records. They are also useful in helping to market the history.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the present stage of community archives movement in the UK. By doing so, it draws some implications of the UK case for the community archives movement in Korea. The UK's 'Independent' community archives as a part of grassroots movement are characterized by participation, autonomy, and self-help of community members. Along with the appearance of the concept of 'community', the UK has experienced the revitalization period of community archives in the social context of community-based urban regeneration project. Recently, the UK's community archives have transformed themselves into building a 'governance model' relying on the partnership with mainstream archives. In particular, the UK model of community archives is based 'on their own ways' with their autonomy as a product of intrinsic development initiated by communities themselves. The character of the model of this type is very analogous to the nature of maul' community archives movement in Korea. Since the early 2000s, however, the UK model of community archives has been evolving into a way of building governance through their appropriation of the skills and methodologies from mainstream archives without endangering the autonomous essences of community archives themselves. We need to note the point of local researchers' view in archival science who have tried to seek out the methodology for building maul community archives with regard to openness and collaboration. In this respect, a shift in archival principle in the UK would give significant implications in regenerating the locally based community model.
