Buenas prácticas sobre archivos históricos en Colombia

Abstract

Different institutions in Colombia have implemented good practices in historical archives, to publicize the importance of these institutions, but, above all, to protect the historical documentary heritage. In other countries or cities, good practices have also been implemented to solve the problems inherent to the activity, which even despite having damaged documents, carried out the restoration process so that the information was not lost and, above all, that it was could access this. The methodology was built from a qualitative approach because this orientation develops a large collection of data, evidenced in the interviews carried out in the Historical Archive of the Universidad del Rosario and the Historical Archive - Javeriano Juan Manuel Pacheco S.J., in the same way The shortcomings that existed before the implementation of the good practices are located and it is possible to publicize the benefits that were obtained when implementing them; In addition, a matrix was made where the historical archives are compared, in order to visualize the services that each one has, as well as the documentary collections that they preserve, etc., because regardless of whether they are different types of archives, they fulfill the function to protect memory and give access to citizens.
