Description
Summary:The University of Porto’s Old Document Collection consists of several information systems that derive from different entities, which although related to one another, had a distinct identity and path. The present work attempts to give emphasis to one of these information systems: the one from Polytechnic Academy of Porto. The constitution and evolution of the information system was described, according to all the records available and previous studies. The analysis of the Academy’s information system led to the conclusion that the information that was part of it is now scattered by different institutions, like the Rectory, the Sciences Faculty and Engineering Faculty. Thus, the present work opens doors for probable future projects, with the possibility of reuniting digitally this system so the history of an institution that gave such an important contribution for the development of a country can be publicly displayed and appreciated.
