The relevance of the documental treatment of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Sergipe for the rescue of institutional memory

Abstract

Considering the importance of documentary treatment as an alternative to reduce the damage to the documentary collection of the Central Archive of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology (IFS) – Campus Aracaju, an extension project was developed that made it possible to learn in a practical way “Know how to do” through the activities performed by the Library and Documentation Scholarship and Student at the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS). For its realization, we use bibliographic research through the literature in the area of? Archivology, with the core in the preservation and conservation of documents, as well as, documentary research, since the direct and continuous contact with the documentation enabled the applicability of the documentary treatment. On the other hand, we worked on a case study that brought us information that directly contributed to the research in question and made us observe the relevance of documentary treatment in actions related to documentary identification, culminating in the realization of considerable changes in the preservation of documents and promoting access the information contained.
