Abstract

The archival description has undergone a long process of development and standardization. The work of the Experts Group on Archival Description in developing the Records in Contexts (RiC-CM) and Records in Contexts Ontology (RiC-O) models has contributed to rekindling reflection on the integration of archival description into broader information retrieval systems which could potentially facilitate the dissemination of knowledge. The contribution attempts to reflect on the potential and possible critical issues in semantic data modeling from an integrated description perspective, inviting greater reflection on the design and on the management of possible digital information restitution environments.
