Introduction The development of Information and Communication Technologies (TIC’s) have had a significant progress and open new opportunities for the provision of services and for access to information. Processes of modernization and computerization of organizations are identified primarily by both the use of technology for the creation and management of information and the appearance of new types and document formats.

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documentsâ&#x20AC;Ś Dropbox

Introduction This influences how to access and preserve the documents impacting records management and archiving. Questions then arise of how to store and preserve information and also whether it will be always accessible information generated in the digital realm.

(Vázquez Murillo, 2008) “The combination of a support and information recorded on it, which can be used as evidence or for consultation”. (Diccionario de terminología archivística, 1988)

Archives and Libraries

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Archive “One or more sets of documents, whatever their date, form and material support, accumulated in a natural process by a person or public or private institution in the course of their management, conserves, respecting that order, to serve as testimony and information for the person or institution that produces it, for the citizens or to serve as sources of history”. (Heredia, 1987) “Institution responsible for receiving, processing, inventory, maintenance and service of documents”. (Dictionary of archival terminology, 1988)

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Library “Institution whose purpose is the acquisition, preservation, study and exhibition of books and documents”. (Dictionary of the Spanish Royal Academy, 2001) “The organized collection of printed books, magazines and other graphic materials (audiovisuals, etc.) with appropriate personnel to provide services to users based on their information needs, research, education and recreation”. (UNESCO, 1994)

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documentsâ&#x20AC;Ś Dropbox

Difference Archive - Library The primary function of libraries is to make information resources available to users. It is also true of the archives, with one fundamental difference: the documents, as a result of the administration, have probative value of legal and administrative character in a given period of its life, during which there are not freely accessible.

Archival Document “Information object that records acts or transactions of the society and thus, has a functional nature that gives administrative and patrimonial value”. (Amoroso, 2009) “Information created, received and kept as evidence and information by an organization or individual in compliance with legal obligations or in the development of their transactions and business activities”. (Norm ISO 15489, 2001) Its definition is not determined by its support or by type of registry, but for the role of the information they provide.

TIC and Archives The effect that technology has had on the archives has been of consolidation, because to know them and identify the advantages they offer gives us the possibility to automate many processes: storage and substitution of supports, transfer, control of disposal, description, distribution , etc.

Conservation and Preservation of the Patrimonial Documents

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Conservation “Comprises specific plans and practices relating to the protection of library and archival materials from deterioration, damage and neglect, includes the methods and techniques developed by qualified personnel” . (Dereau, 1988) “Measures to adequately protect the documents, in order to prolong its use in optimal conditions for as long as possible”. (Carpallo, n.d.)

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Preservation “Organization and programming of all aspects and activities related to conservation of collections”. (Brandt, 1994) “Group of procedures and measures aimed at permanent safeguarding and securing physical integrity of the documents regardless of their support”. (ICAI, 2006)

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Digital Preservation “Processes that are used in order to preserve information and any other patrimonial document available in digital format and to ensure permanent access to them”. (National Library of Australia, 2003) “Group of activities necessary to ensure that digital objects may be located, accessed and used in future”. (Gallart, 2009)

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Patrimony “Legacy of the past, our current assets and what we bequeath to future generations”. (UNESCO, 2003)

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Patrimonial Documents “Documents that have two characteristics: they are considered archival documents, and in turn bear witness to an event or circumstance”. (UNESCO, 2003)

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Digital Patrimony The Constitution of the UNESCO on article I, subsection c) reads: “Assuring the conservation and protection of the world’s inheritance of books, works of art and monuments of history and science, and recommending to the nations concerned the necessary international conventions; By encouraging cooperation among the nations in all branches of intellectual activity… initiating methods of international cooperation calculated to give the people of all countries access to the printed and published materials produced by any of them”.

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Digital Patrimony The Guidelines for the Preservation of Digital Heritage of the UNESCO (2003) reads: “Resources of human knowledge or expression, whether cultural, educational, scientific and administrative, or embracing technical, legal, medical and other kinds of information, are increasingly created digitally, or converted into digital form from existing analogue resources. Where resources are “born digital”, there is no other format but the digital original.”

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Digital Patrimony(continuation) continuation) “Digital materials include texts, databases, still and moving images, audio, graphics, software, and web pages, among a wide and growing range of formats. They are frequently ephemeral, and require purposeful production, maintenance and management to be retained.”

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documents… Dropbox

Why Preserve? The documents are no longer mostly on paper, to become electronic documents. Applications to create electronic documents change frequently and in a short period of time.

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documentsâ&#x20AC;Ś Dropbox

Why Preserve?(continuation) We must preserve and make available to any person the digital heritage of all regions, nations and communities to promote over time, a presentation of all peoples, nations, cultures and languages. (UNESCO, 2003) The objective of preserving the digital heritage is that it is accessible to the public.

Why Preserve? (continuation) It is necessary then: 1) Guarantee permanent access, and 2) Guarantee the protection of private information.

How to Preserve?

The modes of preservation are different, as are many resources to protect, the important thing is to create a conservation and preservation program that corresponds with the principles of : 1. Continuity, and 2. Selection of information.

ACURIL XLI Preserving Patrimonial Documentsâ&#x20AC;Ś Dropbox

Norm ISO 15489

Emerged to standardize international best practices in document management. Proposes to establish a framework for the management of documents in any format or media and in any type of organization.
