D. Eržišnik, Pretpostavke za valorizaciju zapisa na elektronskim medijima, Arh. vjesn., god. 41 (1998), str. 37-44 Tome se kao epilog može pridodati i poznata storija o dva modela zaštite vjerodostojnosti. Poznata je iz literature, a opisuje je naročito njemački arhivist J. Papritz. U tom slučaju u pitanju su bili klasični dokumenti. Prvi je model tzv. zakletih čuvara, karakterističan za anglosaksonske zemlje, gdje jedino ti čuvari jamče vjerodostojnost. Ukoliko se dokaže, daje osim njih - makar i na kratko vrijeme - netko bio u posjedu dotičnih dokumenata, oni postaju blemished, što znači nevjerodostojni. Drugi se model, karakterističan za ostale evropske zemlje, zasniva na principu konteksta. Prema njemu, vjerodostojnost jamči i kontekst ostalih dokumenata u sklopu pismohrane. Naime, ukoliko je dokument zaveden u uredskim knjigama i odložen baš na tom mjestu, bilo bi to dovoljno i za njegovu vjerodostojnost. Summary CONDITIONS FOR EVALUATION OF ELECTRONIC RECORDS In this article the author discusses reasons for évaluation of electronic records. At the same time they are conditions for implementation of this évaluation. Research is based on comparison between electronic records on one and classic documents and microfilm, on the other side. Electronic records must have some additional advantages and qualities. Otherwise this évaluation would be pointless. Regarding the contents, which is the base of every évaluation, those additional qualities are divided in three groups. Firstly, it is possible to extend the évaluation to the cases where, because of a great quantity of data, classic documents are not adéquate (e.g. census). Besides, unlike microfilms, this minimization is in function of data processing, i.e. it doesn't bring any expenses. Secondly, there is possibility of manifold use of the same data, and thirdly, there is an extended possibility for retrieval. The last case concerns databases, and possibilities for searching are inexhaustible. After the contents, we discuss technical and juridical conditions. As to technical conditions, electronic records are characterized by long duration of use, so even keeping those records is in function of their use. Regarding juridical value, this is a complex concept consisting of two parts. The first relates to authenticity, and the second to value as a proof. Between those parts, there is an obligatory procedure that parts them and connects them at the same time. Translated by Tomislav Ćepulić 44
