Abstract

This study aims to identify the reality of ongoing document management in administrative offices of educational institutions, focussing on the importance of these documents in organising administrative work and supporting the decision-making process. The study also seeks to analyse some previous studies that dealt with the subject of document and archive management in university institutions, with the aim of identifying the most prominent problems and difficulties facing workers in this field. The study relied on the descriptive analytical method by reviewing and analysing a number of previous studies related to the subject of research. The results of the study showed that there are a number of challenges that hinder the good management of current documents, most notably the lack of specialised human cadres in the field of documents and archives, the weakness of training programs provided to those working in this field, in addition to the weakness of coordination between the archives offices in colleges and the general administration of university institutions .The study recommends the need to pay attention to the development of current document management through the provision of specialised cadres, the organisation of training courses, and work on the application of modern systems in document and archive management, which contributes to improving the efficiency of administrative work within educational institutions.
