Abstract

An ordinance on official document control was established in March in 2013, forth among 47 prefectures. Kagawa Prefectural Archives is steadily performing its duties which are stipulated by act concerning official document control. In order for "important official documents as historical records" to be preserved or used in archives, "improvement of environment for the usage" such as evaluation and selecting is critically important. Enactment of legislation and ordinance is a chance for official document control administration. On the other hand, ancient documents which are collected privately have been preserved fully in archives or similar institutes such as museum of historical materials and have connected with historical study. It is critically important that recordkeeping and archives, which are integrated in the life cycle of documents and recording, cooperate in different fields academically and industrially. We have to try to promote expansion of the areas of official documents and encourage pluralistic usage by inhabitants without missing the opportunity of enactment of legislation and ordinance.
