“…29 Existing literature clearly shows a relationship between personal records and their use as evidence of transactions. Zacklad 30 suggested that if a digital document is a record of a transaction between two parties, then the transaction and terms described in the electronic record are partially verified by the fact that a co-operative transaction occurred. To be clear, where we are talking about records as evidence, we are talking about a subset of all personal records that perform this function.…”

The purpose of this article is to identify the key attributes of personal electronic records in order to develop systems that may enable people to manage them in the home. As more personal information becomes electronic, this is increasingly necessary. Personal electronic records were identified and categorised using interviews and virtual guided tours. Three main attributes were identified: primary user-subjective categories; attributes which identify the circumstances that give rise to the records; and attributes which describe the legal validity of each record. In addition to providing an improved understanding of personal electronic records in the home, these attributes are developed into a set of potential metadata fields.

“…It does not necessarily entail a similar degree of planning that is ascribed to the design of information (Jacobson, 1999). The difference from information design understood as the design of the structure and presentation of information is even more obvious (Mazur, 2001;Zacklad, 2019).…”

Information behavior theory covers different aspects of the totality of information-related human behavior rather unevenly. The transitions or trading zones between different types of information activities have remained perhaps especially under-theorized. This article interrogates and expands a conceptual apparatus of information making and information taking as a pair of substantial concepts for explaining, in part, the mobility of information in terms of doing that unfolds as a process of becoming rather than of being, and in part, what is happening when information comes into being and when something is taken up for use as information. Besides providing an apparatus to describe the nexus of information provision and acquisition, a closer consideration of the parallel doings opens opportunities to enrich the inquiry of the conditions and practice of information seeking, appropriation, discovery, and retrieval as modes taking, and learning and information use as its posterities. | INTRODUCTIONConsidering the principal consensus on that information behavior (IB) covers the "totality of human behavior in relation to sources and channels of information, including both active and passive information seeking, and information use" (Wilson, 2000), the attention of information science research to the individual parts of that totality has been unevenly distributed (Case & Given, 2016). Much of earlier empirical research and many of the popular theories (Robinson, 2009) alike focus on information seeking whereas other areas, perhaps, in particular, information use (Savolainen, 2009), have remained both under-theorized and under-researched. In parallel, there has been a comparable, relative dearth of theorizing and models that would account for junctures between behaviors that account for the manipulation of information, for instance, by creation, organizing and managing, and its use. Earlier studies refer to "information creation and use" and how they are dynamically related to each other (Huuskonen, 2014) but seldom theorize this nexus in detail. This and other junctures are subsumed in some models that describe spaces and places (

“…Over the past thirty years, it has become possible to receive and maintain electronic versions of personal records, many of which do not have a hardcopy version -the electronic version is the sole record of the dealing (Alba, 2013;Balogh et al, 2022;Zacklad, 2019). Yet research has found that respondents are not satisfied with how they manage their personal information (Alon & Nachmias, 2020b), eliciting language such as 'anxious', 'frustrated' and even 'desperation' (Alon & Nachmias, 2020a).…”

Research has found that if respondents do not manage their personal records such as bills, receipts and tax-related documents efficiently, they risk not being able to re-find them when needed, resulting in significant problems. A significant gap in understanding and addressing this problem stems from a lack of knowledge of the format of these records, particularly in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, that may have caused an increase in managing personal records in an electronic format, rather than by hardcopy. This paper provides results of quantitative research conducted in 2018, thereby providing a valuable benchmark for future research on the same and related topics. This measurement was achieved by means of an online survey distributed via social media amongst 205 respondents. The results revealed that nearly all respondents (97%) retained at least some records, and more than 80% kept some of those records in an electronic format, particularly travel reservations and payslips. Conversely, only 10% of respondents kept receipts and warranties for appliances or medical records in an electronic format. The reason for these differences in propensity of keeping various records in an electronic or hardcopy format will require further research.
