The historical, social, and cultural value of Internet resources is indisputable, therefore many national institutions have created Web archiving projects to hand down this heritage to future generations. The selection guidelines are the most crucial aspect of these projects because they aid in differentiating which resources are worth collecting and preserving from the large number of web resources available. The purpose of this study was to suggest improvements for the OASIS Selection Guidelines by analyzing the selection guidelines of other domestic and international Web archiving projects. First, based on the results of Web archiving projects abroad, we proposed improvements for the definition of Web data and other terms, the basic principles of the collection, collection methods, and collection cycle. Second, we proposed substantial improvements in the target resources for archiving, and also stated what kind of web resources must be excluded from Web archiving. Finally, we discussed the relationship between data collection methods and the legal deposit of online resources, the necessity of constructing a database for selected target materials, and the necessity of cooperative archiving policies.

This study was conducted to find out basic facts on educational resources in Korea and see how educators have managed their tasks without educational resource archives. The research had the following steps: 1) finding out how the current state of primary and secondary education resources is managed and type of educational resources via Web search and literature review, 2) conducting a survey to determine archiving priorities according to the value of resources to the users, and 3) engaging in a discussion with experts on merits of establishing an educational resource archive system. Due to sporadic management and restricted use of educational resources produced in Korea, the primary and secondary education resources are not easily available to the public even though the public and private sectors produce significant amount of resources. The survey result on preferred educational resource types for archiving showed the following top three: 1) actual case studies conducted in the field, 2) curriculum related resources, and 3) various textbooks adopted. Considering the value of educational resources and the necessity of archiving agencies, the experts recommended to set up a national archiving system of educational resources. This study hopes to raise awareness of the need to set up educational resource archives as a start.
