The Federal University of Ceará is considered one of the pioneering public institutions of higher education regarding the concern with the creation of places dedicated to memory at the university context, among with in them are highlighted the creation of its Museum of Art and the José de Alencar’s House in its initial years, as well as the presence of museologists in its staff since then. In the midst of the discussions of the 19th National Museum Week, the Mauc, in articulation with the Artistic Culture Department and the Memorial, both of UFC, proposed the holding of the 1st Museums and Collections Seminar of UFC- Contemporary Reflections under the Extension Program Museum of Art: a new aesthetic reception. Th e meeting aimed to bring together recognized professionals in the field of museums and museology and representatives of the university’s collections and museums. The target audience included professionals and undergraduate and graduate students in the field of museology, with an interest in the theme of museums, collections and cultural heritage at the university level and interested in general. The four day event was crucial to provide a space for reflection on current issues and for the dissemination of UFC’s actions in the areas of culture, memory, collections, cultural heritage and museums, as well as to promote dialogue between dispersed knowledge and practices, although confluent for the preservation of the institution’s university heritage. Considering the universe of museums and collections of UFC, the seminar participants were organized into these categories: Archives; Libraries and Special Collections; Didactic and Scientific Collections; Playful collections; Farms and Preservation Areas; Preservation and Management Instances; Museums and Memorials. The Seminar initiative culminated with the publication of an e-book, a reference work for the area of collections and museums in the context of university heritage at UFC, elaborated in a collaborative and participatory manner.
