Abstract
The documentation produced or related to the press, including the publications themselves, make up an exceptional corpus due to their quality and quantity. Their conservation and analytical study is fundamental for the recovery of their valuable contents. The Hemeroteca (Newspaper and Periodicals Library) is, then, and always was the par excellence source of information. As this is the case, it is easy to understand that it forms a part of the documentary patrimony of the communications media, together with the television, radio, cinema and advertising archives. And as such a patrimony, it must be managed in accordance with the protocols and regulations established for this purpose. The purpose of this study is to offer an overview of the situation of the documentary patrimony of the press, bearing in mind its historical development. The main problems are described and analyzed, by adopting the magazines, daily newspapers and press published for free distribution in Spain as an example and a model.Downloads
