Through the Looking Glass

Abstract

This chapter is divided into two main sections. The first one focuses on the links between open government goals and the theoretical recordkeeping continuum approach: participation, collaboration, and transparency will be only possible within a postcustodial public administration archival infrastructure. The second section presents the maturity model on records management for open government, designed by the Society of Catalan Archivists-Records Managers, in order to build trust between government and citizenship ensuring traceability and authenticity in information governance. Although it is developed according to the Catalan and Spanish legal frameworks, the model can be useful for organizations, wherever settled, aiming to succeed with their open government policies, since it provides a self-audit checklist inspired by international standards on records management, digital preservation, civic participation, and quality.
