Abstract

Since 2012, Colombia began the process of implementing digital preservation in archives, based on the publication of policies issued by the Ministry of Culture [Ministerio de Cultura] and the General Archive of the Nation [Archivo General de la Nacion]; however, standardized technical criteria, that indicate the use of models or standardized technological tools applied for the preservation of digital documents, are minimal. This is a necessary situation in the social and archival context of the country. Therefore, the current regulations on digital preservation that apply in Colombia to identify archival and technological needs in relation to the research object are identified and analyzed. The results described in this article are presented in the master thesis entitled: “Digital Preservation in Colombia from the Archival Perspective: An Analysis of Policies, Levels of Compliance and a Digital Preservation Scheme for Colombia” [Preservacion digital en Colombia desde la perspectiva archivistica: analisis de politicas, niveles de cumplimiento y un esquema de preservacion digital para Colombia] in order to complete the Master's degree in Gestion Documental, Transparencia y Acceso a la Informacion of the Autonomous University of Barcelona in 2017.
