The relevance of the research. The study and development of modern approaches and technologies for forming informational connections among archival documents is a pertinent task that aligns with the requirements of contemporary information society and is essential for the further advancement of archival science and practice. Access to archival documents is facilitated through reference apparatus. However, the limited search capabilities of the apparatus restrict the informational potential of archival collections, leading to a contradiction between their societal significance and search limitations. In modern conditions, automation and digitization of archives have become relevant, necessitating the creation of automated systems for information access to archives with enhanced search capabilities.
The purpose of the research is to examine modern strategies, methods, and technologies for optimizing access to archival information. The research aims to identify the most effective approaches to ensuring fast and convenient access to archival resources for various categories of users. The findings of the study will contribute to improving the organization and management of archival information processes to enhance its accessibility and utilization.
The methodology. The theoretical and methodological principles underlying the formation of links between archival documents are an important component of archival work aimed at ensuring the availability and usability of these materials. Archivists use analysis techniques to identify information links between documents.
The results. Archivists use different classification systems to group documents by common features such as subject matter, document type, date, etc. This contributes to the creation of systematic links between documents, which simplifies their further use and search. All these methods and approaches are used to create systematic information links between archival documents, which allows users to effectively store, organize and provide access to this information. The use of diverse theories, such as semiotics, information theory, communication theory and archival science, helps to reveal the essence and significance of the links between documents in an archival context.
The scientific novelty. Classification of documents allows you to group them by common features, and indexing contributes to the further search and identification of materials. Theoretical and methodological principles of forming links between archival documents are an important part of archival practice, which helps to ensure the preservation and availability of historical information for further use.
The practical significance. The use of special methods and approaches to the analysis, classification and systematization of archival materials enables archivists to effectively establish links between them. This helps to create logically structured archive funds and simplifies further search and use of information.
Conclusions. The use of special methods of analysis, classification and systematization of archival documents makes it possible to effectively determine information links between them, ensuring the logical organization of archival funds and facilitating their further use.
