A trustworthy record is one that is both an accurate statement of
facts and a genuine manifestation of those facts. Record
trustworthiness thus has two qualitative dimensions: reliability
and authenticity. Reliability means that the record is capable of
standing for the facts to which it attests, while authenticity
means that the record is what it claims to be. This study explores
the evolution of the principles and methods for determining record
trustworthiness from antiquity to the digital age, and from the
perspectives of law and history. It also examines recent efforts
undertaken by researchers in the field of archival science to
develop methods for ensuring the trustworthiness of records created
and maintained in electronic systems. Audience: The target audience
for this study is legal scholars working in the field of evidence
law, historians working in the field of historical methodology, and
recordkeeping professionals (records managers, information
technology specialists, archivists) working on the design and
implementation of contemporary organizational recordkeeping
systems.
