The ability to assess and protect the authenticity of records is axiomatic to archival science, and enjoys a centuries’ long theoretical foundation. This paper presents a summary of the author’s research into contemporary ideas about authenticity of digital records among records professionals. It found that the issue of authenticity is as much social as technical, with records professionals using social indicators over technical ones in managing authenticity, but relying on technical means to authenticate records. It presents the role of legal system as an independent variable in considerations of authenticity, opening up a line of inquiry for further study.
