This article reflects on the history of educational institutions by considering the importance of preserving their memory as a source of study in the field of education and focusing on the contributions of new information and communication technologies to the access and democratization of data. To conduct this study, which is bibliographic, studies by Magalhaes (1996, 2004), Vidal (2000), Buffa (2002), Mogarro (2006), Miguel (2007), and Saviani (2007) were used as references regarding educational institutions, memory, archives, sources, and new technologies. The results showed that the documents stored in institutions are relevant to the study of educational policies and the establishment of social relations and that preservation practices have to be fostered by making use of new technologies and by seeking the participation of public bodies.
