Summary/Abstract: Today the digital world is at its highest development. Like any other institution, the Archives face the challenge of digitalizing its activity, however, this process is more complicated than other processes, it requires great professionalism and such dedication, but above all financing whether internal or external, private or institutional. Initially, the Archive had as its mission the collection of archival material and its preservation, but now the Archive as an educational institution has other missions which are at the same time very significant as the two above, divisions such as: systematization, regulation, classification, publication, conservation, restoration and digitalization, today they are not only a mission for the Archive but at the same time they are very important sectors-departments for the Archive as an institution and not only. Digitalization as a sector or department in itself is just as important for both the Archive and the citizen, where its work and function is required and seen as the most complex part, but also as the purest part for both users. For the Archive, digitalization is an endless process, this process requires the latest equipment, software, and this necessarily conditions the updating of the storage of documentation, which we perform by transferring or migrating the subject to a newer program or apparatus. This procedure aims to advance the work and shorten the time of operational or scientific work such as: avoiding excessive paperwork, saving time for providing archive material in warehouses, compiling state encyclopedias, various scientific works such as: scientific research, personal research, educational research (diploma), etc.
