Descripción
Sumario:This article aims to analyze the convergences and divergences presented in international scientific articles that deal with the subject indexing in archival documents, to advance the topic in the field of Archival and Information Science. The research is exploratory, descriptive and qualitative. Articles were collected in two databases: Library and information Science Abstracts and Library, Information Science & Technologycal Abstracts. After preliminary analysis, we selected 20 articles, covering the period from 1965 to 2013. The results show that the definitions for indexing in Archivology roughly resemble the indexing of understanding in the context of Library and Information Science with need to consider the specific context, archival principles in the subject representation process and the development of guidelines for vocabulary control.
