  • Based on the risk factor evaluation for the file format, this paper defines the procedures for presenting the long-term preservation plan for that format and the technical information registry necessary for building the system. This is a procedure to perform a risk assessment for the format, evaluate the risk, and select a long-term preservation strategy based on the information registered in the registry and information on the external signature and internal signature of the electronic record. We also reviewed the criteria for selecting appropriate long-term preservation strategies in the process and provided the criteria for adopting each detailed strategy of migration and emulation, which are long-term preservation strategies. And we implemented this process as a long-term preservation decision support system. This system can be used to provide guidelines for the maintenance, management, service and long-term preservation of information resources of electronic records in public institutions such as National Archives of Korea and Libraries.

  • Appropriate strategies are needed to ensure long-term preservation of various types of electronic records. For proper preservation of electronic records, it is necessary of decision-making processes for risk assessment, notification and implementation of conservation measures. To do this, the task of assessing various risk factors that impede the long-term preservation and utilization of electronic records should be done first. In this study, since electronic records are mostly stored in file form, risk assessment for electronic records of file type is performed. The risk factors required for the risk assessment of the file format are derived, and the algorithms are developed to devise a calculation method of the weighting factor and the risk factor index for evaluating the risk based on the proposed risk factors. In addition, the proposed methods are applied to the file formats used in Korea and risk assessment is performed and the results are analyzed.

  • This study was intended to investigate the long-term preservation policy of electronic records published abroad to derive and compare the policy elements necessary for policy establishment. The U.S., Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, and Switzerland archives were selected, which officially announced the e-Record Preservation Policy. Research and analysis of the long-term preservation policies of the five selected countries resulted in six main policy elements. These six policy elements are preservation scope, long-term preservation strategy, risk management, integrity assurance methods, preservation infrastructure, and reference models. We compared and analyzed five long-term preservation policies through policy elements and found six implications as a result. The implications were focused on establishing a long-term preservation strategy in line with the actual state of the institution and using long-term preservation policies outside of the country as advanced cases for various types of electronic records.

Redesign of the Records Management Process at the Production Stage for Long-Term Electronic Records Preservation: A Focus on Cloud On-Nara System (전자기록의 장기보존을 위한 생산단계의 기록관리 프로세스 재설계: 클라우드 온-나라 시스템을 중심으로)

  • Deficiencies are present in records management during the production stage of long-term electronic records preservation. As such, this study seeks to address these issues by introducing Cloud On-Nara System (On-Nara Document 2.0) at records management sites and providing various systems and linked services. In particular, the factors that degrade the continuity of long-term preservation in the records management process, from the production to the utilization of electronic records, in On-Nara Document 2.0 were identified, and the causes were analyzed in compliance with ISO 15486-1:2016 and the Public Records Act. As a result, in redesigning the records management procedure, the organization of the records management hub between systems and the conversion of the document preservation format for long-term preservation were proposed. Moreover, the application of consistent production format selection criteria and the reinforcement of the production and management of granular metadata were recorded. These measures were proposed in an effort to reestablish management methods.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the current state of long-term preservation policy for electronic records in Korea and to present future tasks. Although the current electronic record long-term preservation policy is not clearly codified, it can be said to consist of technical elements such as digital signature, hash, preservation format, and long-term preservation package. Each technological element was considered in order, and the limitations of the current policy and technology in the changing digital environment were analyzed and alternatives were presented.

  • This study proposes the functional elements for long-term preservation of electronic records, which are parts of nation's important records and information assets. For this purpose, We compared the international standard ISO 14721 with international research projects and digital archives systems from multi-nations. We identified 18 functional elements for long-term preservation of electronic records. They can be used as the basis to strengthen authenticity and usability when building new digital archive systems or upgrading existing systems at the Archival Institutions.

  • For the long-term preservation of document-type electronic records, the National Archives of Korea has chosen PDF/A-1 as the preservation format named as the document file format, and established it as a public standard. The only option of selecting PDF/A-1 restricts the use of various electronic file formats that can or must be applied to actual works as IT advances and tasks change. Moreover, it is difficult to apply PDF/A-1 to other types of electronic records (administrative information datasets, audiovisual records, web records, etc.). Therefore, it is necessary to diversify the preservation formats of electronic records. We suggest a framework for selecting various preservation formats. Furthermore, we propose common criteria and evaluation methods frequently applied to all electronic records when selecting a preservation format, and introduce a methodology for deriving intrinsic criteria applied to each type of electronic records.

  • For long-term preservation of electronic records, the information on the whole processes of management from the time of creation of the electronic information should be captured and managed together. Such information is supported by preservation metadata thus the implementation of preservation metadata is important for preservation of electronic records maintaining the record-ness. Preservation metadata is the information that supports the process of digital preservation and functions th maintain long-term viability, renderability, understandability, authenticity and identity of digital resources. Preservation metadata should be developed applying the international standard Reference Model for an Open Archival Information System(OAIS) to have international interoperability for exchange and reuse. Initial international preservation metadata schemas were developed standardizing the OAIS Reference Model. But the preservation metadata schema of Victorian Electronic Records Strategy(VERS) and recently published Data Dictionary of PREMIS Working Group were developed in advanced types that are different from the existing framework. Those were advanced th practical ones from conceptual one. Comparing these two cases, proposed the elements of integral preservation metadata for long-term preservation of electronic records. This thesis has the significance that it has suggested the direction for future development of the elements of preservation metadata by setting the past discussions related to preservation metadata in order and proposing integral preservation metadata elements for long-term preservation of electronic records.

  • In this paper we explain the definition and component of electronic records, and reestablish the principle of the preservation. Also we discuss the conceptual approaches and requirements for long-term preservation in an electronic environment. The preservation in digital environment is to protect itself of record identity with the reliability and authenticity, and to ensure the accessibility of records. It needs to be periodical migration along with digital environment change for the long-term preservation of the electronic records. and to select software independent standard format. to ensure the integrity of electronic records along with this preservation strategy, process and relative information required for digital preservation are to record in the form of metadata. The preservation system is separated into four functional entities ; registration process, preservation process, access process, main record management system. Also, this article is conceptually to introduce the selection criteria of storage media, the security provision for the archive collections and the disaster recovery which apply to the digital archives.
