Contents/Summary

Summary
"Trust and Records in an Open Digital Environment explores issues that arise when digital records are entrusted to the Cloud and will help professionals to make informed choices in the context of a rapidly changing digital economy. Showing that records need to ensure public trust, especially in the era of alternative truths, this volume argues that reliable resources, which are openly accessible from governmental institutions, e-services, archival institutions, digital repositories and cloud-based digital archives, are the key to an open digital environment. The book also demonstrates that current, established practices need to be reviewed and amended to include the networked nature of the cloud-based records, to investigate the role of new players, like Cloud Service Providers (CSP), and assess the potential for implementing new, disruptive technologies like blockchain. Stančić and the contributors address these challenges by taking three themes - state, citizens, and documentary form - and discussing their interaction in the context of open government, open access, recordkeeping and digital preservation. Exploring what is needed to enable the establishment of an open digital environment, Trust and Records in an Open Digital Environment should be essential reading for data, information, document and records management professionals. It will also be a key text for archivists, librarians, professors and students working in the information sciences and other related fields"--
