Preservação, pesquisa e difusão do patrimônio educacional: o caso do Liceu de Humanidades de Campos (RJ)
In this article we describe and discuss the path tracked by the Research and Extension Group “Liceu de Humanidades de Campos: preserving and publicizing the identity, the memory, and the school culture in the community.” The trajectory of this group is made up of numerous and successive projects aimed at the preservation of the historical memory, as well as the production of scientific studies and dissemination of the educational heritage. Special attention is given to projects developed in the last phase, concerning the disclosure of assets and popularization of science. Our objective is to give subsidies that may encourage research groups, principals, teachers, and the community in general, in order to avoid oblivion of the historical and educational heritage that has greatly marked our society, but which has, in contrast, received very little attention from the public power.

Os arquivos escolares nas instituições educativas portuguesas. Preservar a informação, construir a memórial : Cultura Escolar e a Cultura Material Escolar: entre arquivos e museus
Nowadays, school files promote deep concerns regarding the safety and preservation of their documents. These documents constitute fundamental tools to build the educational memory. The existence of these files will gain a true meaning when the access to the information they hold is guaranteed, through a correct organization of the documents and a proper location. School files are the stock of the sources of information directly related with school work. This gives schools an additional importance for new approaches in educational research and also puts them in a central position for the understanding of educative phenomena and the socialization process of younger generations. With this contribution, we intend to discuss the following points: the role of files in schools; the conditions of school files in Portugal; the nature of the existing documents and the studies to follow; the school files and the several sources of information; the school files and the building of educational memory.
