Abstract

This article studies the main concepts, properties, attributes, and connections included in Records in contexts (RiC), a draft of a new conceptual model for record description by the International Council of Archives (ICA). The analysis shows the new design of representation, access, use, preservation, and interoperability for information-records that this model represents in the environment of the semantic web. The intrinsic advantages of RiC for the integration and compatibility of records information systems with libraries, museums, and other cultural institutions are shown, also highlighting its relevance for distribution, reutilization, and free-use of records´ resources in digital scenarios.
