Records in Contexts: A conceptual model for archival description [pdf]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The standard in the initial stage of development by EGAD is named Records in Contexts (RiC). EGAD envisions a two-part standard: a conceptual model for archival description (RiC-CM) and an ontology (RiC-O). EGAD has begun its work by developing RiC-CM and, within RiC-CM, identifying and defining the primary descriptive entities and their interrelations that constitute archival description. EGAD has focused on describing the world from an archival perspective, that is, a perspective situated in the specific mandate of archives and grounded in the fundamental assumptions and principles that govern the activities performed in fulfillment of the mandate.
