English abstract

The author visited Canada during March 2010 to study Canadian Archival system especially records management in archives in Ontario province; the driving rationale for the study was the realization that there existed very less or no archives and record management program in India. This study intends to report different types of archives and record management (ARM) programs in Canada, with special reference to e-records management viz. automation status, creation of virtual exhibits, preservation of digital images, metadata standard for e-records etc. The prime objectives were to overview the current state of modern record keeping in the Government of Canada and identify the core competencies required to build effective record keeping infrastructures in the electronic work environment that has emerged in most government institutions
