	abstract = {<p>Like this conference, standards are designed to overcome boundaries. The boundaries presented by information technologies have been envisioned as a series of seven steps (the OSI mode]) each of which provides a platform for communications across systems. Archivists are most concerned with interchange standards on the application (seventh) level. These standards, if appropriately formulated, could convey tbe context in which information is created and managed and the structural relationships between components of the data content as well as the raw data in the system. In this paper, the archival requirements for interchange standards at this level will be discussed. Archivists, it will be suggested, have employed tools in their discipline that give them a valuable insight into requirements for accountable management of these new forms of cultural communications. The implications of these for new technology standards will be elucidated.</p>},
