Propose the data warehouse architecture as a reference to be applied in libraries. This proposal has began with the concern about the large amount of information existing in these sectors, at the operational, managerial and strategic levels, and as an effective way to generate historical information of collection, customers (users) and costs, for decision making processes. Through literature review about data warehouse architecture, it is presented the architecture proposed by Ralph Kimball, in a dimensional scheme, taking as example the process of "acquisition". It is expected that libraries can use this architecture to obtain analytical results similar to those of companies that already make use of such technology.
