Abstract

As a record of information of all organizational activities, archive functions as a center of memory, decision-making aid, and evidence of the organization’s existence, as well as serves other organizational interests. Without archive to record organizational activities, an organization will encounter many obstacles in implementing its programs and activities and making organizational development. In addition, without archive, its existence will also be questionable. In the reform era, the energy of the Government of Indonesia was drained to provide good public services. But, the archiving conditions were very pathetic and neglected. It can be seen from the number of files that were improperly and incorrectly organized, lost, damaged, or even sold. This was due to the institution’s lack of understanding of the use value of recorded archive. The strategy to improve the archiving condition was to organize it by taking into account the archive’s life cycle, the period of its creation, the period of determining the use value of archive, the selection of the right media to record the archive, the official script, the period of use, the mechanism for managing letters, storage, and rediscovery, the period of disposal of the utilization of the archive that has primary and secondary use value, as well as the procedures for saving, maintaining, and protecting the archive.
