Alaska R. Evid. 1008
Functions of Court and Jury
When the admissibility of other evidence of contents of
writings, recordings, or photographs under these rules depends
upon the fulfillment of a condition of fact, the question
whether the condition has been fulfilled is ordinarily for the
court to determine in accordance with the provisions of Rule
104. However, when an issue is raised (a) whether the asserted
writing ever existed, or (b) whether another writing, recording,
or photograph produced at the trial is the original, or (c)
whether other evidence of contents correctly reflects the
contents, the issue is for the trier of fact to determine as in the
case of other issues of fact.

Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law.
