JAEN GARCIA, Luis Fernando. The plaintiffs of the archival documents. Infor [online]. 2021, vol.26, n.2, pp.132-164.  Epub 01-Dic-2021. ISSN 2301-1378.  https://doi.org/10.35643/info.26.2.7.

Throughout the history of archives, there have been different names to designate the people who come to these information centers. However, due to the fact that to date we have not located any associated term, nor sources of information that theoretically support the name of the first petitioners of the archives documents, we have coined for this purpose the voice of «original plaintiff of the documents». The various terms related to the applicants of the documents in the archives, which currently have a bibliographic support that theoretically support them, are called «researcher», «user», «client» and what is known as «part interested». Therefore, this article analyzes those different meanings that over time have been attributed to the applicants of the archives documents. Once this analysis has been done, the conclusion is reached that of all of them the one that is currently valid and has a wide robustness is the phrase «user», as this is evidenced, among other things, in the archival information sources recently minted, which mention and emphasize in the diction «user» to refer to the group demanding archival services and products.

Palabras clave : PRIMAL APPLICANT OF ARCHIVES; RESEARCHER; USER; CLIENT; INTERESTED PART.
