Abstract

The complex document management activity covers the whole institutional space of production, organization, control and use of archival documentation. The objective of the study was to analyze the archival practices performed during the internship period (between November 22, 2014 and November 22, 2016), as well as the guidelines made in the file of the regional forum of the Judge José Flóscolo da Nóbrega, located in the municipality of João Pessoa. Methodologically, the investigation assumed a descriptive and exploratory character; its applied nature, has launched proposals to improve archive practices. The participant observation, the daily record and the report of the activities performed were used as a data collection instrument. Interpreting reality in the light of the authors already consolidated in the field of Archivology, the study was anchored in a qualitative approach. As a result, it was presented a description of the techniques and procedures adopted in the accomplishment of the activities, subsidized by the theoretical field of Archivology, bringing precision and processing of the documentary flow of the archive of said forum. It is concluded that archival archiving is not limited only to the implementation of procedures and methods in information management. The search for better working conditions and recognition in institutions is a constant struggle of the archivists, still part of the Brazilian reality.
