O caráter público e relevância como patrimônio histórico do acervo das serventias extrajudiciais: regulamentação de seu repositório documental para a conservação e pesquisa

Abstract

This dissertation addressed the importance of registry collections as historical sources, pointing out their relevance for the preservation of memory and collective identity. The central problem of research lies in the underutilization of these collections as sources of historical research, caused by the lack of adequate categorization and the absence of clear regulations for researchers' access. Given this, its objectives include investigating the concepts of memory and documents, analyzing the importance of registry collections in the construction of identity, discussing document preservation practices and proposing regulations that facilitate researchers' access to these collections. In this context, the methodology required was bibliographic and documentary in nature, using legislative sources, studies published in specialized journals and archival documents. The research involved a theoretical analysis of the concepts of memory and identity, as well as a review of the preservation and conservation practices of notary documents. The results indicated the need for a systematic approach to cataloging and digitizing collections, in addition to specific regulations that guarantee the accessibility and preservation of these documents. Thus, the discussions highlight the importance of considering registry collections as historical-cultural heritage and the need for public policies that promote their conservation and accessibility. The research culminated in the proposal of a bill that establishes guidelines for the preservation, cataloging and access to registry collections, ensuring that historical documents are preserved and made available for research, contributing to the advancement of historical knowledge and the appreciation of collective memory.
