Abstract

Analysis of the functions of the documentation service of Televisión Española in Murcia, through an analysis of the archive and its contribution to news programmes and a survey on the opinion of the staff of this regional centre. The objectives were three: estimating the added value contributed to the regional news programmes of TVE in Murcia; analysing the proportion of news items produced with audiovisual documentation using daily recordings, and, in addition, the type and format of documentary requests; and establishing the opinion of professional staff at TVE in Murcia as to the documentation service. For that, the TVE Murcia archive resources were studied; 41 news programmes from the months of March and April 2008 were analyzed; and the results obtained through a questionnaire distributed to workers on the staff of the Regional Centre were examined. The documentation service at TVE's Regional Centre in Murcia provides substantial professional benefits to the professionals working there and also to the news programs themselves. The percentage of news items employing audiovisual documentation is high. Audiovisual documentation provides images for news items for which no daily recordings exist, supplementing the information. The largest number of archive requests are related to locations; and the usage of audiovisual documentation is more substantial in the first four items of the news programme. Professional staff at TV in Murcia want the archive services to be strengthened.
