  • The presidential records of the participatory government transferred to the Presidential Archives are the result of innovation in the record production system symbolized by the document management card of the e-jiwon system. Records reveal the policy-making process by documenting the decision-making process. This study identified the existing forms of records related to records management innovation produced by the Office of the Records Management Secretary at the Office of the President, and reorganized them into functions-activities-subjects-actions. Thematic record types help to systematically understand the evolution of the matter and the nature of the record. The characteristics of each record were identified by writing detailed information on the record. These attempts are meaningful in that they provide basic data for the evaluation and use of presidential records.

Thus, the researchers examined cases of SNS records management in foreign countries, interviewed records officers in Presidential Archives, as well as conducted a status analysis of the presidential SNS records management status and the SNS accounts of former and current presidents. Based on the analysis, the current state of the domestic and international situations was analyzed.

To solve the problems reflecting the characteristics of SNS records, a collection, management, and service plan was thus proposed. This study is meaningful in that it tried to discuss the management of the presidential SNS records and could be used as basic research of presidential SNS records.

  • Korea's public institutions produce mandatory production records under the "Public Records Management Act" and submit statistics on production status to the National Archives of Korea every year. However, there is a difference between the actual status of compulsory records produced by local governments and the status statistics submitted to the Archives. Based on this, an improvement plan was proposed after identifying problems with the production management system of the production obligation records. In particular, the scope of the production obligation records is ambiguous, and the person in charge lacks an understanding of the specific scope. In addition, only certain work-oriented records are being produced. As such, the improvement plan shall clearly determine the target of the local government's production obligation records, and the person in charge of the affairs shall understand it and implement an ordinance on the production and management of the local government's production obligation records.

  • In this paper, local public archives is referred to the public archives of provincial governments and metropolitan city governments as defined in the public Records Management Act. Under the Act, as professional archives, the local public archives preserves records designated as permanent preservation which the local government and its sub-agencies created or received to conduct public business. The Act also allows local public archives to establish an appropriate basic plan to manage its holdings as well as to oversight its sub-agencies. The Act stipulates that the local public archives are to be established in all provinces and metropolitan cities. The local public archives shall preserve archival heritage safely and utilize use of the recorded information as defined in the Article one of the Act. The local archives shall respect the principle of provenance. It is expected that the local archives shall strengthen local archival promotion campaigns which necessarily reflect unique local circumstances. However, as the Act just recommended the establishment of local public archives not to force as a mandatory procedure, it resulted in a flow of some confusions and misinterpretations. Despite the act was proclaimed two years ago, the local public archives are not yet established, not to mention that no preparatory works are on the way. To establish the local public archives effectively which meet local residents needs and demands, provincial governments and metropolitan city governments should proceed a well-prepared preparatory works plan considering the steps to transform them into the local public archives when they establish agency records centers. The first step in this process is to reach at a common consensus on the functions and roles of the local public archives which accommodates local residents needs and demands. Secondly, by analyzing the functions of archives to be established, an estimation of needed human resources, facilities, equipments, organization, budget appropriation, and local rules should be performed. Otherwise, the establishment of decent local archives is a far remote future. One of the methods to proceed this project systematically is to establish a local research institute for the local archives and cultural studies which would be put under the local university authority while consulting with local governments, local civil organizations, local historical and cultural societies. It is very undesirable to stress too much upon administrative efficiency when concerned parties discuss the functions and roles of the local public archives. They must keep in mind that when the functions to collect and use historically valuable records are active then administrative efficiency can be raised as well as accountability. Collecting and arranging historically valuable records is a short-cut way to promote accountability and develop local political culture. The local public archives is a valuable community historical center and an effective medium to facilitate historical speaking and writing among local people, something more than a simple public archives. Then our campaign for the establishment of local public archives can be a meaningful political cultural movement.
