Política de gestión documental para la Universidad Central “Marta Abreu” de Las Villas

Abstract

The creation of a Records Management Policy in universities supports the informative-documentary processes. The objective of the research is to design the Records Management Policy for the Central University “Marta Abreu” of Las Villas. This center is located in the city of Santa Clara, being the most important house of higher studies in the center of Cuba. For the design of the instrument, documentary analysis and document review were used as the fundamental method. The Policy is presented, based on the identification and description of its components, among which the following stand out: Glossary of terms, Preamble, Purpose, Policy Statement, Scope, Regulatory and regulatory framework, Records Management Systems, Responsibilities, Relationship with other policies and Validity. The proposal of the Policy is in line with the examples of good practices established at an international level in universities and the analysis of the normative guidelines linked to the process.
