Sažetak
The paper deals with the problem of electronic record’s connection with the medium. The electronic record is connected with its medium, but it is not fully dependent on the medium, in the way the analogue record depends on its medium; but, after all, there is some relation of electronic record to its medium. The term electronic record is used for both analogue and digital record, so, as regards the connection and the dependence, its use becomes unclear, because in some cases electronic record is connected with its medium, and in other cases it is not. In order to clear the air, the meanings of some media-related terms are investigated: record, electronic record, analogue record, digital record, as well as their reciprocal relations, considering the connection with the media. The definition of electronic record as a pivotal term is analyzed. The independence of electronic record from the media enables its easier spreading, other than that required for the storage, where the medium is just the basis. This opens up the possibility of the electronic medium in question to be investigated as well as the record, no longer dependent on the medium, but movable together with the medium, and within the medium in the changeful electronic environment, while still preserving the record’s authenticity. The consequence of using the term electronic record is its use in the context of digitalization as well as in the context of other functions originating from this connection within information technology.
