It begins with the articulation key concepts and some RIM issues of e-Discovery, which is governed by the U.S. Federal Rules of Civil Procedures. It analyzes three lawsuit cases for which Korean companies were sued by North American companies in order to determine the main reasons behind the defensible disposition failures. Based on the analyses, it suggests the RIM strategic policies for preparing the e-Discovery, including the development of inventories for documents and ESI in their possession, custody, or control; ensuring legal hold programs in good faith; and making defensible retention policies.

Abstract

Recently, a number of record centers have reviewed the introduction of an RFID system for repository management. However, the RFID system currently in use by records management institutions is implemented with only a few functions for repository management. As such, a more efficient nonelectronic records management is required by improving the functions of the current RFID system. In this paper, the researchers proposed a method to improve its functions through an analysis of the RFID system being introduced for the management of nonelectronic records. To analyze the status of nonelectronic records management of records management institutions, the researchers investigated cases of the National Archives of Korea where RFID was introduced in 2007 and the records management institutions of local governments where RFID was introduced in 2016.

Abstract

Along with the changing computing environment, the production of public documents is moving to G-Cloud and On-nara System, which are re-engineered on G-Cloud. In this process, it is predicted that the Open Document Format (ODF) will replace the proprietary document format, HWP, and will become widely used in the near future. To preserve digital records produced in ODF, this study reviewed the current long-term preservation strategies and identified considerations for new formats. For ODF source files, it is suggested to eliminate the conversion to PDF/A-1 and preserve the documents in the extended ODF with added metadata of records management. Moreover, ODF is presented as an alternative format for preserving proprietary formats. Finally, this study reviewed the current long-term preservation format, i.e., NEO, and suggests a zipped BagIt package, which has an ISO 21320 specification.

Abstract

MSR identifies that records are key factors in achieving the goals of an organization and that records management is part of the business administration. Therefore, organizations could secure accountability and continuity of works through the activities of production and management records. This study explored what should be prepared to adopt MSR in public institutions based on the analysis of the requirements of the ISO 30301. which is prepared to be utilized as a certificate system. It focuses on 1) how laws could be supplemented to adopt MSR by comparing the requirements of MSR and the Public Records Management Act; 2) what should be prepared by organizations in terms of their rules and procedures; and 3) how the evaluation system of public institutions and the records management evaluation system could be revised to ensure that MSR will be sufficiently implemented in the organizations. In conclusion, the part to be supplemented by the law, the area to be operated as the internal rules of the organizations, and the way to be reflected in the evaluation of the public institutions were suggested.
