The dilemma of implementing macroappraisal is to transform theory and methodology into selection and preservation of archival records through disposition procedures. Having shifted the focus from the record to the function from which it derives, how does a program or an appraisal project committed to the macroappraisal approach get back to the record to ensure compliance and accountability? This paper uses the experience of Library and Archives Canada (LAC) as a form of case study (a model for success) which examines how applied theory and program practice come to terms with each other. It analyses the tensions, the challenges, and the creativity that inevitably arise when turning macroappraisal from an appraisal methodology into a fully articulated archival disposition program whose final “deliverable” is the archival record. Making things simple, it turns out, is complicated. 相似文献

This article explains the re-engineering of the government records disposition program at Library and Archives Canada (LAC)
in 2002–2004. The main point is that the framework of accountability has grown since the launch of the macroappraisal program
(often referred to as the planned approach to disposition) at the (former) National Archives of Canada (NA) in 1990–1991.
The opportunity for building an expanded framework of accountability presented itself after 2000 when a number of “push” (internal
to the disposition program) and “pull” (external to the program) factors coalesced to challenge a reduced program. The reengineering
exercise involved LAC government records archivists working together to develop the following new program documentation: Government-Wide
Plan (GWP); Memorandum of Understanding (MOU); Appraisal Checklist; Terms and Conditions for the Transfer of Archival Records;
Briefing Note for the Librarian and Archivist of Canada; and the Multi-Institutional Disposition Authority (MIDA) for Operational
Case Files. Significant work also went into creating version three of the Records Disposition Authorities Control System (RDACS).
As a result of reengineering the appraisal and disposition program, there is an accountability framework now in place for
more than keep-destroy recommendations, one that has moved beyond disposition to include acquisition of and accessibility
to the archival record. 相似文献

Case files are voluminous and present challenges to archivists, government departments, and other institutions that are charged
with the responsibility of managing these records either throughout or at various stages of their life cycle. To date, archivists
and records administrators, both in Canada and worldwide, have recognized the case file challenge and are rethinking solutions
for dealing with this persistent problem. This article argues that by building on our cumulative knowledge acquired through
years of applying macroappraisal and functional analysis to the appraisal of government records, and staking out a modern
definition of “case file records” based on their transactional characteristics, we indeed do have the skills and the expertise
to tackle the problem and develop a new solution for case file records. Rather than taking a piecemeal approach or relying
on sampling techniques, Library and Archives Canada (LAC) Case Files Appraisal Working Group (CFAWG)1 demonstrates how to consistently make keep-destroy appraisal decisions for the disposition of operational case file records.2 相似文献

In 1999–2000 the National Archives of Australia (NAA) adopted a functions-based approach to appraisal. Since that time functional
appraisal projects have for the most part been conducted in cooperation with individual agencies. What has been missing is
a broad whole-of-government or macroappraisal framework which might assist with the strategic prioritisation of projects,
the allocation of resources and the identification of high-value functions, activities and record classes. This article describes
a project commenced by the NAA during 2003–2004 to research and develop a functions-based macroappraisal framework for current
and prospective appraisal and for retrospective application to records of the past 30 years of the Australian Government.
The article compares the Australian approach with macroappraisal strategies pursued in Canada, the Netherlands and South Africa. 相似文献

A new appraisal method for national government records introduced in the 1990s aimed at reducing backlogs in the transfer
of pre-1976 records to the National Archives of the Netherlands. Since then, appraisal and disposition decisions are based
on macro analysis. Preventing new backlogs from occurring was a second goal. The socalled project PIVOT (1991–2001 and after)
coordinated the introduction, development, and implementation of the new appraisal method. This article describes the objectives,
method, and appraisal criteria, as well as the criticism and laborious progress of this ongoing story.

Macroappraisal as developed in Canada has had significant currency in archival literature over the past decade, and aspects
of its program and ideas have been implemented in other jurisdictions. For the first time, this essay probes the theoretical
and practical origins of macroappraisal in Canada since 1950 and why its originators no longer found convincing the predominant
status quo on appraisal as articulated by T.R. Schellenberg. The essay then summarizes the theory of macroappraisal as articulated
at the National Archives of Canada, and the strategic and program infrastructure developed in the 1990s to turn the new theory
into operational reality. As no archival concept is universally locked in time, the evolution and changes in the macroappraisal
program, both in theory and strategy, are also analysed in its Canadian home base over its first decade, as well as some internal
and external criticisms of it. The essay intends to illuminate the deeper context of macroappraisal, so that an international
audience may better understand its strengths and weaknesses. As the author is the principal architect of macroappraisal, the
essay consists of equal parts of archival history, theoretical analysis, and personal reflection. 相似文献

Both macroappraisal and the Australian records continuum-based DIRKS methodology have been influential in the New Zealand
debate on appraisal in recent years. The primary influence of macroappraisal has been in the area of prioritisation of appraisal
work. This paper considers New Zealand thinking on prioritisation, and the influences of risk management and functional analysis
on this issue. A lack of agreement on the purpose of appraisal in the professional literature is noted, and some personal
suggestions are offered on a model taking elements from macroappraisal and other methodologies. 相似文献

In October 2004, the archival appraisal working group of the Association of German Archivists (Verband deutscher Archivarinnen
und Archivare) presented a position paper outlining the present status of the debate on appraisal within the Federal Republic
of Germany. What follows is an overview of this discussion as background and context for the group’s position paper; an examination
of the common ground between appraisal as practised in Germany and macroappraisal as developed in Canada; and a glimpse at
the future directions of this discussion in Germany. The position paper is appended to this article. 相似文献

The author examines the adoption and evolution of macroappraisal at Library and Archives Canada from the point of view of
managing program information. Practices inherited from an earlier period were improved in the areas of accountability and
control of the administrative process, but these improvements could not support the new approach's most recent needs in terms
of communication, research and analysis, and reflection on the program's consistency and results. The operational sector responsible
for the program took the initiative to build an information system, the Records Disposition Authorities Control System (RDACS),
which proved a key asset in re-engineering the program, both in identifying problems and in sharing knowledge essential to
ist sucess. 相似文献

The development of German archival appraisal theory since 1990 has been little discussed in the English-speaking world. This article provides an introductory overview of the Federführungsmodell developed by the Bundesarchiv (Federal Archives), the horizontal and vertical appraisal approach of the Landesarchiv (State Archives) of Baden-Württemberg, and the documentation plans typical of municipal and university archives. It also examines the new focus on records management and calls for collaboration in appraisal between different archives, levels of government and heritage institutions. 相似文献

The author, a senior lecturer at Edith Cowan University in Australia, discusses the literature used to teach macroappraisal
of electronic records through distance education techniques within an environment rooted in the Australian records continuum.
In this context, students are given a sound grounding in systems analysis and design, as well as functional appraisal and
the importance of metadata. A key teaching element is the International Standards Organization's Information and Documentation—Records Management (ISO 15489), which she demonstrates has strong parallels to the principles of systems analysis and design. 相似文献

The author, a professor at the University of British Columbia, outlines the foundations of macroappraisal theory within the
Canadian federal government's records acquisition program, placing Terry Cook's 1992 essay “Mind Over Matte: Towards a New
Theory of Archival Appraisal” at the heart of his students' analysis of theoretical writings. In addition to reflecting on
the importance of case studies on the application of macroappraisal theory and methods, he concludes by touching on the applicability
of macroappraisal to elements outside the public sphere. 相似文献

Abstract The Center for Electronic Records of the National Archives is the unit of the National Archives and Records Administration responsible for the appraisal, accessioning, preservation, and provision of access to the permanently valuable electronic records of the Federal government. Recent changes in technology, especially the development of global networks of computers, have changed the way some archivists view the role of archives, especially for electronic records. From a reference services perspective, there is a continuing rqle for electronic records archives. 相似文献

In this essay, the author ruminates on the relationship between collecting and archival appraisal. He argues that collecting
does not necessarily equal appraisal, although society and even archivists value it as an important function. The author stresses
that the critical need is for archivists to have a clear perspective, whether highly theoretical or immensely practical, of
what it is they hope to accomplish in appraising and that they need to document this process so that future researchers and
archivists can understand what archival appraisal meant. As it is, archives might become more valued as important cultural
symbols than for the records they actually hold. The notion of an “end” of collecting is in the sense that collecting is appraising,
but appraising elevated to a professional function requiring more care, deliberate thought, and self-evaluation. 相似文献

This paper reports on a study funded by the National Archives and Records Administration and conducted by the authors to collect information on Federal employees’ views and perceptions on twenty information collection topics pertaining to records creation, maintenance, use, and disposition. Multiple data collection techniques were employed. Findings suggest that in developing records management policy and guidelines, one size will not fit all agencies. A range of situational factors appear to affect the success with which records management is accomplished in the various agencies. Additional research is needed to continue to test and refine these situational factors. Future records management policies and guidelines, however, may wish to consider such situational factors to increase the overall effectiveness of records management. 相似文献
