ABSTRACT

This study discusses the process of forming discussions on information management in the field of records management and the need to expand information management functions that promote the utilization of records as information, focusing on the thought of records disposal in the digital era. Until now, records disposal has been recognized as a concept of physical destruction aimed at reducing the cost required for management and preservation through the reduction of large numbers of records. However, records disposal provides a starting point for discussions on information management in the field of records management. It forms the central axis for debate to strengthen the role of records management as information managers in the digital era. Therefore, this study examines the thought of records disposal in the paper age, analyzes the division of the function of records management and the process of developing into discussions on information management, and examines the controversy surrounding records disposal in the digital era. Furthermore, this study suggests the need to expand information management functions that promote the utilization of records as information.
