ABSTRACT

Since the International Council on Archives (ICA) announced RiC-CM v0.1 in 2016, nearly a decade has passed, during which related groups have expressed various opinions, and numerous academic studies have been conducted. Hence, this study aims to examine the applicability of RiC by deeply exploring its development process and the responses of relevant groups. To this end, the study reviews the development and the advanced process of RiC, analyzes the differences and improvements between each version, and explores the trends and perspectives among related groups. The results show that RiC-CM has been simplified and improved to better reflect the digital records management environment. At the same time, RiC-O has been refined to achieve greater structural consistency with RiC-CM. Practitioners expressed caution about implementation, citing insufficient representation of digital records management and a lack of specific guidelines. Meanwhile, researchers, though acknowledging limitations in connecting with other standards, evaluated that RiC implementation is advantageous. This study is expected to serve as a valuable foundational resource for researchers and relevant groups preparing for the implementation of RiC in Korea.
