Consideraciones interdisciplinares sobre el estado de la terminología archivística en Colombia

The experience of an interdisciplinary work between terminologists, archivists and librarians is presented here. In the first place, an introduction to the subject of archival terminology is made. Its status, reflected in an inventory of reference terminological resources, is shown in the three working languages of greatest use by archival experts in Colombia: Spanish, English and Portuguese. Secondly, the working methodology is applied for the constitution of terminology databases. Thirdly, the main results are shown: A monolingual terminology database with English and Portuguese equivalences; a system of archival concepts, and the main features of the terms of this area from a brief qualitative and quantitative analysis. Finally, the reflections arising from the collaborative work process among experts of different disciplines are presented as a conclusion. Likewise, some considerations on the panorama of archival terminology and its projection in the country are presented
