ABSTRACT

This study is motivated by the recognition that existing contextual and methodological research for systematically accumulating records is insufficient, given the complex nature of National Assembly members’ legislative activities. The National Assembly Archives’ policy and manual, which focus primarily on functional classification, are disconnected from the actual creation and custody of legislative activity records and address only a limited context. To address this issue, this study explores the diverse provenance contexts in legislative activity records, categorizing them into four types: function, sequence, chronology, and custodial history, based on theoretical considerations of provenance and current status analysis. As a case study, it presents the experience of building a collection of legislative activity records for Woo Won-shik, a five-term National Assembly member and Speaker of the 22nd National Assembly during its first half. The study focuses on three sources—the member’s house, constituency office, and legislative aides—analyzes their relationships with the member as the record creator, examines the distinctive characteristics of each provenance, and proposes methods for organizing these records.
