Description

The diary of the Archives Section, with reports of visits to archives in various locations between 1936 and 1938, is a key document for understanding the document protection policy during the Civil War. This record shows the systematic effort to ensure the safety of archival holdings, many of which were at risk from bombings or looting. The work of archive professionals was essential to preserve the country’s historical and administrative memory. This document reflects a modern vision of documentary management, aligned with the European values ​​of conservation, access and heritage responsibility. It is also a tribute to the silent but fundamental work of archivists in times of crisis.
