As data privacy legislation and protections are implemented and advocated for internationally, archivists must consider how these developments impact their work, particularly appraisal. Online digital collections make records more easily accessible to researchers and the general public. However, private and sensitive information may be disseminated through these collections inadvertently. In 2018, the European Union (EU) passed the General Data Protection Regulation, which includes right to be forgotten (RTBF) legislation. This enables EU citizens to request the redaction of their personal information online. In the wake of EU court rulings which demonstrate how the RTBF impacts what archives make accessible, and increasing public concerns regarding online privacy, archivists should be aware of the possibility of receiving increased digital collection takedown requests and what their legal liabilities may be. This article explores how takedown requests, as well as RTBF advocacy and criticism, are positioned with respect to appraisal theory. It also addresses how takedown requests affect appraisal praxis and how archivists can be better prepared to manage them.

数字馆藏删除请求对档案评估的影响

随着国际上对数据隐私立法和保护的实施和提倡，档案管理员必须考虑这些发展如何影响其工作，尤其是评估。在线数字馆藏使研究人员和公众更容易访问记录。但是，私人和敏感信息可能会无意间通过这些集合进行传播。2018年，欧盟（EU）通过了《通用数据保护条例》，其中包括被遗忘权（RTBF）立法。这使欧盟公民可以在线请求对他们的个人信息进行修订。在欧盟法院的裁决表明RTBF如何影响档案馆可访问的内容以及公众对在线隐私的日益关注之后，档案管理员应该意识到收到越来越多的数字馆藏删除请求的可能性以及他们的法律责任。本文探讨了评估要求如何定位删除请求以及RTBF的倡导和批评。它还解决了删除请求如何影响评估实践以及档案管理员如何更好地进行管理。
