The methodology to be used within this research corresponds to the qualitative one, since through the interview the administrative management process on the preservation and conservation of the bibliographic material in each library will be verified and then a comparative analysis will be generated on the type of management and preservation, also identifying the type of manipulation, registration and ordering of bibliographic material between the Dr. Alejandro Muñoz Dávila libraries of the Technical University of Manabí and the Portoviejo Museum and Historical Archive of the city of Portoviejo. It should be noted that the objective of This work focuses on demonstrating the importance of the preservation of bibliographic documents, in order to know the natural and anthropic factors that affect the wear or preservation of these materials. This resulted, among other situations, in recognizing that a manual of administrative and management procedures is necessary for the preservation of adequate documentary sources for their organization, storage and retrieval of historical archives.
