Open Archive is the application of open source technologies and archivologic biblioteconomic library information science (LIS) to the management of files in any size and degree of complexity. It is based on the open science research Open Archive Management.

Open Methodology:

1. Open Archive: Archivologic library information science (LIS) file management.
2. Open File System: Information retrieval (IR) library classification method document classification open standard.
3. Open Access: File system permissions access-control list (ACL).

Open Filename:

Files Names are to be organized in the following way to improve their human readability, accessibility, and self-explanation:

Historical Files Name: Year.Month. Name of The File - Author of the File.filetype

Historical Files Example: 2025.10. Open Archive - Felipe Ribeiro.odt

Hierarchical Files Name: Number. Name of the File - Author of the File.filetype

Hierarchical Files Example: 1. Open Archive - Felipe Ribeiro.odt

Open Directory Structure:

Folders and Files being ordered by the year and month dates or hierarchy numbers in front of their name allow for their better organization. I propose the following data structure alignment:
