Resumo
The preservation of cultural assets, especially bibliographic collections, requires
the dissemination of the gamma ionization technique, which is mainly used for the
decontamination and sterilization of these materials. The procedure, which is used to
preserve library collections in Brazil and other countries, is also used to preserve
documents and art collections, being safe to handle, after ionization, once it leaves no
residue behind. The aim of the study was to assess knowledge and identify behavioral
aspects related to gamma ionization and its application in decontaminating collections.
The target audience was a group of professionals who work with cultural assets in
Pernambuco and other states. Two questionnaires were used, obtaining 39 and 105
respondents respectively, characterizing the participants and their knowledge of gamma
ionization. The research was qualitative and quantitative, of a phenomenological nature.
For the analysis, questions were grouped into thematic blocks, characterizing the
participants, finding out “knowledge of gamma ionization itself” – with both knowledge
and ignorance of the concept and application of the technique – and also collecting from
participants their feelings, opinions and positions on various aspects of the application of
gamma ionization. Finally, means and personal sources of obtaining information were
specified, dealing with sharing of information.
