A Study on Role and Activation of University Archives : Focused on the Case of Korea National Open University Archives

The traditional role and identity of the university, the prime representative of Korea’s higher education system, is currently in a state of being challenged by the advancement of information-communication technology and so-called “economic reasons”. However, such situations call for the expansion of the university’s traditional social-cultural role. Also, the university must operate based on decisions of its traditional constituents and under self-directed discretions.
The students, professors and staff compose the operating organization for autonomous operation of the university. The decisions made by such operating bodies appear in various forms of records produced at the university. Conveying the decisions made in public and private domains, these records will reveal the self-identity of the university. Thus, memories are reproduced and its significance materialized through the medium of records, assisting in understanding the identities of its constituents.
In this thesis, to derive measures to invigorate the archives of the Korea National Open University through evaluation of its current status and shortcomings, first, general theoretical evaluation of the establishment and management of the University’s archives were carried out. Also, based on Samuels’ documentation strategies, partial analyses of the University’s functions were attempted.
The Korea National Open University, examined for this case study, was established as a life-long education system with the purpose of providing opportunities to anyone wanting education. Through continuous growth, currently there are 13 regional campuses, 32 learning centers nation-wide and graduated over five hundred sixty thousand students. However, due to the nature of Korea National Open University, it can be stated that, rather than through physical and official activities, records have been actively generated through unofficial small assemblies connected through the nationwide network. Therefore, records exhibiting official accomplishments were relatively lacking. Thus, the university sought various ventures, and establishment and management of the archive was attempted as it was deemed appropriate tool to showcase its unique history, tradition and culture. However, the active support in its early stages and internal motivation were met with constant challenges. Slacks in control systems for administrative records and self-produced records, incomplete historical record collection systems resulting from lack of social, historical and cultural awareness, perception differences and gaps in the awareness of communal purpose of specialized record preservation and utilization are examples of these obstructions.
The following three compensatory measures were identified through analysis of present status of the Korea National Open University. First, a systematically segmented codification applicable to all records within the University must be established, regulated and managed. Second, collection efforts through collaboration among internal departments, regional campuses and learning centers are needed for historical record collections. Finally, granting access to broadcast records that exist within the university as specialty records is needed. In this information age driven by Information and communication technology advancement, a virtuous circle of granting access, use and utilization of Korea National Open University’s educational contents will bring forth the result of increasing the value of its unique knowledge transfer, promotion of socialization, research training and community service.
University archives must operate under a stable yet flexible system capable of handling a wide variety of records. Through this process, the archive can reveal its university’s uniqueness by securing a wealth of records. Furthermore, an information sharing platform where discussions on uniqueness and special characteristics of individual university’s archive can take place is needed. Continued research on this case study of the archive operations at the Korea National Open University and in related fields are encouraged.
