This study deals with the trend of bibliographical description up to now and focuses on the ISAD(G) which is becoming the main current in standardizing the written record. Based on what has been found, this study induced the multi-level description concept as a way of classifying a group of archives and applied this method into the actual bibliographical description. Standardization of bibliographical description has accelerated since 1950 and developed from APPM, MAD, RAD, I S M into ISAD(G) which stresses multi-level description concept. The classification of the written record and bibliographical description in Korea can not be an exception and considered to be desirable to follow the stream of ISAD(G) which is becoming the standard of the world. This study therefore applied the multi-level description concept to the archives and attempts to classify and arrange the document.
