By Terry Eastwood This book reports the findings of a research
project on the means of protecting the integrity of active and
semi-active electronic records. The project, which is commonly
referred to as "the UBC Project," was conceived by two of the
authors of this book, Luciana Duranti and Terry Eastwood, and
conducted between 1994 and 1997. The third author, Heather MacNeil,
who worked formally as the principal research assistant on the
project, acted as an equal in the research and in the writing of
this book. The project investigated a number of fundamental
questions that have arisen over the past decade as a consequence of
the rapid development and use of computer technology for the
creation, maintenance, and preservation of recorded information.
One of the first comprehensive studies of the issues associated
with the management of electronic records was conducted by the
United Nations. The study, commonly known as the ACCIS report,
aimed to "develop guidelines for implementation of electronic
archives and records management programmes for use by United
Nations organizations, taking into account traditional archives and
records management practices. " The report of the study of
electronic records in eighteen United Nations organizations
identified a number of enduring issues. It recognized that the
United Nations had to "distinguish between record and non-record
material. "l It recognized the problem of ensuring the authenticity
of records, which, rather narrowly, it construed as "assuring
legality.
