Abstract: The problem of electronic records management is ultimately attributed to the trust of electronic records,which has become a consensus in academic circles. The dual-system management mode is a helpless choice under the influence of the lack of trust in electronic records and the inertia of trust in paper documents and archives. It is a methodological change to solve the dilemma of single-system management of electronic records from the perspective of trust. Starting from the philosophical interpretation of trust,this paper clarifies the definition of ICA trust,defines the trust in archives oriented by“the realization of archival value”,and discusses the basic composition of its relationship and structure .
