The ICA Experts Group on Archival Description (EGAD) is pleased to announce
the release for public comment the initial draft of the first part of a
two-part standard for archival description named Records in Contexts (RiC).
When completed, the standard will include a conceptual model (RiC-CM), and a
formal ontology (RiC-O). The current release of the initial draft of RiC-CM
will remain available for public comment until 31 December 2016. A draft of
RiC-O will be released for public comment late in 2016.
RiC-CM is available here:

At the ICA Congress in Seoul, Korea in September 2016, three representatives
from the EGAD will provide an overview and introduction to RiC on Thursday,
8 September, 15:00-16:30. The session will be available in Chinese, English,
French, and Korean.
Since 2012, with members from thirteen countries, the EGAD has been
developing the new standard for the description of records based on archival
principles. In the course of its work it has taken into consideration
critiques of current practices, established and emerging national conceptual
models as well as the models of allied professional communities, and the
opportunities presented by new and emerging communication technologies. The
objective of the standard is to reconcile, integrate, and build on the four
existing standards: General International Standard Archival Description
(ISAD(G)); International Standard Archival Authority Records-Corporate
Bodies, Persons, and Families (ISAAR(CPF)); International Standard
Description of Functions (ISDF); and International Standard Description of
Institutions with Archival Holdings (ISDIAH).
The EGAD looks forward to receiving comments on the draft RiC-CM.
