Identificação e inserção de tipos documentais fotográficos na elaboração de instrumentos de gestão de documentos: estudo sobre a Secretaria Municipal de Meio Ambiente de Rio Claro (SP)

The text aims to bring the studies and strategies of the Public and Historical Archive of Rio Claro (SP), highlighting the identification of photographic types of the Municipal Environment Department. For this purpose, in addition to a bibliographic survey, the constitution of the empirical object, the Municipal Environment Secretariat (SEMA), was presented. A diagnosis of documentary production was carried out by the team from the Public and Historical Archives of Rio Claro, with the elaboration of a Document Evaluation Form. With the survey of the agency's legislation and the data from the evaluation forms, it was possible to understand the functions and routines of the photographic documents. The photographs were inserted in the research instruments, but the complexity of identifying photographic documents in document production was found, as well as their management and recordkeeping methods for these documents within the scope of the Municipal Public Administration.
