Análise do modelo conceitual CIDOC-CRM a partir dos princípios- base da catalogação descritiva em museus

Resumo

The conceptual models aim to describe and organize concepts from a given domain in order to establish semantic bridges between various information resources in different contexts. In this perspective, the Conceptual Reference Model (CRM), formulated by the International Committee for Documentation (CIDOC), presents itself as a conceptual reference model aimed at museological institutions and collections, aiming to integrate, represent and relate museum objects to various cultural sources through entities and properties. This study, even though focused on the museological reality, is based on the problem of investigating whether the conceptual model CIDOC-CRM is in line with the statements and principles that define concepts, research tools and steps of descriptive cataloging in museums. The aim of this study is to analyze the CIDOC-CRM conceptual model from the formulation of basic principles of descriptive cataloging in museums, seeking to discuss its effective use in the context of semantic relationships between museum collections. This is a descriptive and bibliographic work, and uses as methodological approach the bibliographic review and direct observation. As a result, it was noted that the model performs its semantic relations based on values related to the sphere of meaning and symbolism, pluralizing the existence of the museological object in different environments, and turning to the improvement of international museum information networks. In conclusion, the results obtained made it possible to evidence that CIDOC-CRM is an excellent alternative for the registration of data and for their association in the informational panorama of collections.
