Arquivo Público do Distrito Federal (ArPDF)

The Arquivo Público do Distrito Federal established AtoM-ArPDF as its system for archival description and access in February 2016. An official 2018 order created a permanent management commission comprising archival, digital-preservation and information-technology staff. Its responsibilities included maintaining the installed repository, developing rules and manuals, monitoring data entry, proposing improvements, resolving technical issues and organising training. The order records that the repository was installed within the Federal District government's information-technology infrastructure, demonstrating an institutional implementation rather than an isolated experiment. The archive's 2018 guide also identified its Public Security Secretariat fonds inventory as available through AtoM-ArPDF. Neither source identifies a predecessor catalogue or documents an automated data migration, so this is classified as implementation of a new description and dissemination environment rather than replacement of a named system.
