With the growing demand for information in a digital environment, memory institutions have been striving to reduce the distance between their users and potential users, creating and establishing new ways to disseminate information and documents contained in their collections. In this context, based on a literature review on archives, libraries, museums, and memory centers, this work presents Access to Memory (AtoM) as a platform for accessing, describing, and disseminating the collection of memory centers in public institutions. To this end, a case study is carried out in a public institution responsible for safeguarding, preserving, and disseminating the institutional history of the State of Rio de Janeiro. Finally, it is possible to observe those information dissemination initiatives, especially those carried out through access platforms such as Atom in a standardized way and based on archival norms, enrich the users' experience by facilitating their approach to documents and information from institutions.
