Preservação de documentos arquivísticos digitais: reflexões sobre o uso de padrões abertos nos acervos

Abstract

This paper provides a reflection on the use of open standards within collections, specifically with regard to software, file formats and management and preservation systems, exploring requirements of a preservation policy for the production and preservation of documents. The applied methodology deployed in this research entails a literature review from which data is gathered and subjected to qualitative analysis, which moves from the general to the specific, i.e., from examining the scope of digital preservation to the strategies and policies in order to argue the importance of using open standards.
