The "Law on Archives" (2008) and corresponding bylaws regulate issues related to managing records of their custodians/creators and the Archives of the Republic of Srpska, but the conditions that custodians/creators must fulfill in order to be classified into one of the categories are not precisely defined. The obligations of custodians/creators of records should depend on the category into which the creator of records is categorized. Two years after the "Law on Archives" was published, the "Rules on the conditions and methods of transferring public archival material between the creators and the Archives of the Republic of Srpska" mention creators of category I, II and III, and the "Rules on the categorization of archival fonds" specify conditions that creators must fulfill to be categorized to category I. Six years after these two Rules were published (2010), the appraisal of creators of the first category was done. The first category relates to creators which create archival records of importance for history and other sciences, for culture in general and also for other social needs of the State. The Archives of the Republic of Srpska has made the appraisal of public records creators as bearers of certain functions within their activities. The paper presents the process, goals and significance of categorisation/appraisal of creators from the experiences of the Archives of the Republic of Srpska.
