SPECIAL AND HISTORICAL BIBLIOGRAPHIC COLLECTIONS IN UNIVERSITY LIBRARY: experience report

Experience report from an extension project carried out at the Sectorial Library of the Agricultural Sciences Center of the Federal University of Paraíba. Understands the extension practice from the organization of special and historical collections housed in the Sectoral Library Francisco Tancredo Torres. In addition to books, the collection includes newspapers, photographs and letters. The report starts from the experiences of the professional librarian and of the student graduating in biological sciences. The collections hold the memory and history of the institution, as well as the city and state, so, once organized, these collections will instigate institutional memory and the city of Areia. The activities developed were: selection, cleaning, organization and construction of inventory. As a result, it was noted the need for documents that standardize the preservation and conservation practices, as well as the definition of rare works criteria for the library so that they can guide the services and standardize the care of organization, preservation and conservation of the collections.
