聯合國教科文組織於1992年發起世界記憶計畫，目的是為了保護世界瀕臨危機的文獻遺產。世界記憶是一個長期的計畫，主旨在於改變國家、政府、社區及個人能重視、保護進而利用圖書館、檔案館及博物館典藏之文獻遺產。目前世界記憶名錄中，共有245項文獻遺產被登錄。名錄中的文獻遺產項目涵蓋了各種類型的文獻和藏品，包含了古籍、石碑、錄音檔案…等。 　　臺灣曾於2010年以中央研究院典藏之甲骨文申請世界記憶的經驗。本論文將以此議題為基礎，探討世界記憶之申請流程、標準及其他有資格申請名錄的文獻遺產。同時藉由深度訪談，瞭解國內典藏單位人員對於世界記憶之看法，以及眾多館藏中是否有具有申請資格的藏品。參酌上述訪談資料，提出相關建議，以供我國典藏單位未來欲申請世界記憶名錄之參考。 　　根據研究結果，本論文提出以下幾點建議：（一）建立社會對文獻遺產的認同感；（二）整合與推廣文獻遺產資源；（三）循序漸進申請世界記憶。 / UNESCO established the Memory of the World Programme in 1992.
