ABSTRACT

This paper aims to elaborate on the reality of Gagakgo (架閣庫) by looking into its staff and abolition, given how Gagakgo was originally where diverse archives in Joseon were preserved. This study on Gagakgo, therefore, could be used as a basic reference to grasp the reality of the Joseon’s Records Centers and Archives. This institution was changed as a labor organization following changes in the political environment. As a result, the status and operational aspects of the institution also changed. Gagakgo was abolished once during King Sejo (世祖)’s reign and then restored during the period between King Hyojong (孝宗)’s and YoungJo (英祖)’s reign. This restored institution also performed the same role as before. This paper serves as reference to better understand the system of Gagakgo and the archival preservation system in Joseon.
