檔案源自於人類活動紀錄的保存,可以視為前人智慧與經驗的累積,建構過去人類歷史發展的第一手資料。在目前資訊社會中,政府機關所產生與保管的資訊紀錄都是判讀政府成效的相關依據。本研究主要以兩種不同檔案管理理論,紀錄生命週期理論與紀錄連續體理論,探討我國目前電子檔案管理模式之關係,以及英國與澳洲目前以數位連續體計畫,在我國電子檔案管理模式上可能的作為與建置。 故本研究採用文獻回顧與訪談法,了解國內電子檔案管理現況,分析兩個理論於我國電子檔案管理模式之關係,以及英澳兩國的數位連續體計畫於我國電子檔案管理模式上提出建議。 Records come from the activities of humans. In the past, it can regarded as accumulated wisdom and experience to build the firsthand of human’s history. To date, by the development of information technology, the government begin to utilize information technology to communicate across the departments, and daily business work. Therefore, the government agencies produce lots of electronic records. But it not only emerge numerous of electronic records, but also result in physical and electronic records coexist, that make records management more difficult. In this information society, records produced and kept by government agencies can regarded as the effectiveness and important information. In order to manage electronic records efficiently, there are two records management theory. One is records life cycle theory, and the other is records continuum theory. The purpose of this study is to review the relationship of these two records management theory with electronic records management model in Taiwan. And UK and AU adopted digital continuity policy in recent years. Its concept applied to electronic records management in Taiwan.
