Based on the "Archives and Records Management of Public Agencies Act" enacted from the year 2000, the Korean local districts, in a near future, will establish local archives. According to this law, the archives of provincial states and municipal cities are to be conserved permanently, whereas the archives of local districts are to be conserved temporally. Subsequently, the important archives that are categorized as the permanent documents will be transferred to the provincial archives. However the Korean local districts, which are well known for long history of self-administration, are better to preserve permanent documents in their own archives. Moreover, it is necessary for the local archives to collect and compile public and private documents as well. Also it is advisable for the local archives to associate with local citizens by holding lectures and exhibitions which would endow the archives a status as the cultural centre for local districts. By doing so, the local archives could be more important to the population for their cultural and practical necessities than the remotely municipal archives. Furthermore, according to the rule of field preservation, it is better to conserve documents in the local archives. If the government will decide to transfer permanent documents to the municipal archives, the local archives are recommended to keep micro-film copy by themselves.

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.

With the increase in private and community archives to record various different shapes and forms of societies, the establishment of archives for social minorities has heightened. In line with these changes, this study analyzed the Korean queer archives "Queerarch," which focus on records and archives on sexual minorities. This study examined the current status of the archives of Queerarch, and grasped the characteristics of the queer archives and the problems of archival description elements. The current archival description elements used in Queerarch do not fully reflect the characteristics of the queer archives and the multilayer description method. To solve these problems, this study proposed a metadata schema that includes archival description elements that are based on archival description standards such as the General International Standard Archival Description (ISAD (G)), Manual of Archival Description (MAD), Rules for Archival Description (RAD), and others.
