Public or private institutions constantly need to make evidence-based decisions aligned with business objectives; however, the reality is that there are various ways in which data is handled, and many obstacles still need to be overcome. In this sense, the aim of this research is to develop a checklist with the stages and cross-cutting factors of a data lifecycle that best suits the context of Compaz Ariano Suassuna, both to support the data management of offered activities and the management of data necessary for monitoring the results-based management model recently adopted by the institution. Regarding the methodological procedures, this project uses the quadripolar method. The epistemological pole encompasses initial discussions until the delineation of objectives to achieve answers to the research problem. The theoretical pole discusses the entire theoretical framework on results-based management, data management, and data lifecycle. In turn, in the technical pole, the project is characterized from the standpoint of its nature as basic, and in relation to its objectives, it is descriptive. In terms of technical procedures, it is bibliographic and documentary. The case study method was also employed, and concerning the approach to the problem, this study is qualitative. The morphological pole consists of constructing results obtained through interviews, surveys, and analyses. The results indicate that the proposed checklist has eight stages, each with at least one transversal factor. It is incremental and continuous, based on stages present in other models already consolidated in the literature, in addition to stages recommended by the author of this work. It will meet the specific needs of the organizational context of Compaz Ariano Suassuna.

With technological advancement, audiovisual gains relevance in the academic and scientific field as a tool, documenting experiments, sharing research and facilitating education. In this study, the term audiovisual covers speeches involving hearing and vision, recorded and transmitted digitally. Information Science recognizes the value of audiovisual, facing challenges due to the digital information explosion. This work analyzes the availability of audiovisual content, specifically digital video, in Institutional Repositories (IRs). With the aim of understanding how this resource is made available in IRs, the research aims to characterize the videos present, analyze the flow of availability based on IR policies, and identify advantages and challenges associated with the use of videos in these repositories. The methodological process involves a multiple case study in selected repositories, including the Institutional Repository of the Universidade Federal Fluminense (IRUFF); Lume - Digital Repository of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS); Institutional Repository of the Federal University of Ceará (FUC); and Arca - Fiocruz Institutional Repository. The analysis in the IRs was conducted using the non-participant observation technique, combined with specific guides for data collection. This analysis is mainly based on observation, seeking to understand the practices adopted in IRs related to metadata, preservation and usage statistics when making videos available. The results obtained indicate that the Institutional Repositories analyzed adopt different practices in relation to the inclusion and availability of audiovisual materials. Some repositories offer detailed information, including video-specific metadata, copyright, preservation information, and usage statistics, while others take a less comprehensive approach. The IRUFF categorizes the audiovisual resource into three typologies: “Image with movement”, “Video” and “Video (Live)”, the latter being added only since 2020, coinciding with the beginning of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Lume stands out for storing the largest number of videos, with 2,376 documents. The FUC Repository presents only three records in the “Video” category, and its Institutional Information Policy does not deal clearly and in detail with the inclusion of digital videos, resulting in gaps in the inclusion of audiovisual content. The Arca Institutional Repository stands out for having a comprehensive and detailed inclusion policy for videos, providing a step-by-step guide that simplifies the insertion process, guiding the inclusion of data, metadata in different accepted types, formats and specifications, as well as as well as some restrictions when registering these documents, eliminating barriers to the dissemination of audiovisual content.

Este estudo evidencia como a manipulação da informação (subsumida, em muitos casos, na sua omissão ou na sua manipulação) ascendeu a extrema-direita do Brasil, principalmente pelo uso da midiosfera extremista.  Assim sendo, o objetivo geral deste estudo é compreender a forma própria do mecanismo do universo digital da extrema-direita bolsonarista na ocupação da midioesfera, em torno da desinformação e da construção de uma realidade paralela durante o governo de Jair Messias Bolsonaro e na sua campanha à reeleição. Os objetivos específicos são: Descrever como se estruturou a rede de informação na midiosfera extremista; Identificar as afinidades estruturais deste universo digital com a extrema-direita; Caracterizar como é o processo de apropriação da informação no universo digital na midiosfera da extrema-direita.

With the spread of access to the web, automated library catalogues have become available and accessible online, expanding search possibilities and giving information subjects more autonomy to find the information they need. However, to be effective in a digital environment, these catalogues need to be easy to use and have good information findability. In this context, the aim of this research was to analyse the online public access catalogues of Brazilian public university libraries in terms of the ways in which they promote the findability of information. This was a descriptive, qualitative study which sought to investigate the integrated library systems and catalogues used by the sample of 99 state and federal public higher education institutions. Based on this survey, a comparative study was carried out between catalogues and discovery interfaces, with the aim of obtaining an overview of the ways in which they promote the findability of information. To do this, the systematic observation technique was used, with the Information Findability Checklist by Vechiato, Oliveira and Vidotti (2016) as the evaluation tool. The results showed that the online public access catalogues used by the institutions can be classified into three categories of information findability: good, fair and poor. The online catalogues native to the SophiA and Pergamum systems were rated as good in terms of findability. The online catalogues managed by the Aleph and Siabi software were classified as having fair information findability and the online catalogues managed by SIGAA and Gnuteca obtained a poor result in terms of promoting findability. Among the discovery interfaces, all showed good results and their findability was classified as good. It was concluded that, in terms of promoting the findability of information, the online catalogues of Brazilian public university libraries need to implement ways and functionalities to promote greater participation by individuals in these environments, reducing the passive nature of obtaining information and adapting to the new information behaviours they demand. It was found that it is important to implement improvements in usability, accessibility and responsiveness, as well as promoting greater integration of catalogues with the institution's information and technological ecology.

The objective of this thesis was to develop an archival data management model for issuing digital diplomas, following the FAIR and TRUST principles, from the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Paraíba (IFPB). The proposed model aims to optimize the efficiency and effectiveness of the process of issuing and managing digital diplomas, ensuring the reliability and security of digital records and in compliance with modern data standards and best practices in the field of Archivistics. The study is characterized as applied, descriptive, documentary and qualitative research. The theoretical foundation is based on studies by thinkers linked to Information Science, Archival Science, Contemporary Diplomatics, Data Life Cycle, Big Data and Metadata, Briet (2016); Bellotto (2007); Duranti (2015); Borgam (2015); Pomerantz (2015). The results indicate that the model developed not only meets the specific needs of the IFPB, but also establishes a standard that can be adapted by other institutions. The model is innovative in integrating the FAIR and TRUST principles, emphasizing the importance of location, access, interoperability, reuse, transparency, responsibility, user focus, sustainability and the use of appropriate technologies in the management of archival data. It is observed that the proposed model represents a significant advance for the management of archival data at IFPB, offering a viable path for modernizing the process of issuing digital diplomas, contributing to the field of archival data management, providing a practical example of how the FAIR and TRUST principles can be effectively implemented in educational institutions, promoting significant improvements in data management and user service, ensuring reliability and security of digital records.

The Public University has to make its findings accessible and, thus, provide society with the knowledge generated in its core, thus affecting the process of open access (open access) to scientific production. Its Institutional Repositories (IRs) act for this purpose and the Representation of Knowledge in these spaces is directly influenced by cultural issues, by the phenomenon of globalization and new technologies, which demand a concern with the ethical dimension. When moral values are denied, there is an ethical dilemma and one of the ways to enable users to reflect their values is cultural hospitality. For this reason, this descriptive research, with a quantitative approach, whose investigated population is the IRs of the Federal Public Universities of the Brazilian Northeast, aims a general way to identify the ethical aspects of the indexing carried out in the IRs. More specifically, to characterize how indexing is carried out, in the light of cultural hospitality by Beghtol (2002, 2005); verify that this activity follows standards/norms; and find out how ethical problems are detected and resolved during indexing. To this end, the survey of documents in the IRs was carried out on an ethical basis guided by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which make up the 2030 Agenda or depth (detail) of the description. The next stage involved sending a questionnaire to each Institution's Library System Director.

This research aims to analyze public libraries in the city of Recife as a space for cultural mediation conducive to the formulation and implementation of public cultural policies aimed at the LGBTQIAP+ population. Methodologically characterized as exploratory, with bibliographical and documental procedures, its specific objectives are: a) to discuss the public library in Brazil as a cultural mediation space in order to promote diversity; b) to identify the performance of public libraries in the city of Recife about a cultural policy proposal to address issues related to gender and sexuality in these spaces; c) to ascertain the need for cultural policies related to the LGBTQIAP+ population in the public libraries of Recife. In order to achieve these goals, we underwent interviews with the responsibles of 5 public libraries throughout the city of Recife. The research notes the importance for the public library, supported by cultural public policies, to deal with gender and sexuality matters through actions of cultural mediation aimed at constructing a society that’s more receptive to the LGBTQIAP+ community

Regarding the many problems that the systematic use of false information has caused around the world, this research has the main goal of understanding disinformation as a political phenomenon related to capitalism. A materialist view of disinformation is applied, aiming to see it as a phenomenon of physical, cognitive and social manifestations, based on the views of Buckland (2017) and Dantas (2012) on the dimensions of information and on information as a work process, respectively; a theoretical framework is also outlined that aims to categorize types of disinformation based on concepts brought by Araújo (2021) and Miranda and Santos-D’Amorim (2021). Disinformation here is understood as a form of mass manipulation through the ideological diffusion of the ruling class over the working class, through the use of the ideological production of discursive genres by the superstructure, materialized in the form of ideological apparatuses of the State, based on Bakhtin’s theoretical philosophy of language, as well as Marxist writings on ideology. In this sense, the problems with disinformation occur under a post-truth cultural context, which is understood as a consequence of the advance of neoliberalism in various spheres of life, and which emerges from the establishment of an interregnum arising from a crisis of authority and hegemony of capitalism. In Brazil, the crisis takes on concrete contours from the Brazilian Protests in June of 2013, through the convergence between police violence, press coverage, social media and depoliticization. The radicalization of a Brazilian New Right-Wing is pointed out as a result of a process that dates back to the redemocratization in the 1980s, but which only gained strength after the doors of the crisis opened in June, with a well-organized far-right, making use of ideological production for manipulation, and a weakened left that is incapable of exerting proportional force. In this sense, informational education that aims to combat this disinformation must be carried out in a radical and revolutionary way, which aims to build the conditions for the emancipation of the working class; in this train of thoughts, the research tries to give a take on what is the role of librarians and information professionals in this process. In the end, possibilities for concrete actions are pointed out for this fight, as well as new theoretical research guidelines, in addition to pointing out the effects of the class struggle in Librarianship that prevent more effective actions from being taken by the category.

Os instrumentos de coletas necessários são entrevistas estruturadas com perguntas pré-definidas aos gestores das instituições de memória, há a necessidade da aplicabilidade de um pré-teste para completar melhorias no projeto

It addresses the subject of information processing, more precisely, the indexing of legal information, starting from the question: How has Information Science produced and disseminated scientific knowledge on the subject of indexing of legal information? It presents as a general objective the analysis of the scientific production on the subject indexing of legal information in the area of Information Science (CI), between two specific objectives of elaborating a systematic mapping of the literature and identifying an overview of publications in CI on indexing of legal information . As for the methodological procedures, it is of a theoretical nature, with its objectives established in exploratory and descriptive research; present qualitative and eventually quantitative data. The method used is the Systematic Mapping of Literature, based on searches carried out in the main databases of the area: BRAPCI (Referential Database of Newspaper Articles in Information Science), LISTA (Library, Information Science and Technology Abstracts), Redalyc ( Network of Scientific Journals from Latin America and the Caribbean, Spain and Portugal), SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online), Scopus and Portal de Periódicos CAPES (Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel). Based on the observations and two results obtained with the execution of this research, it is clear the scarcity of scientific publications, within the period of 2002 to 2022, that contemplate indexing in the legal domain in the area of Information Science. It is concluded that most of the articles selected for analysis bring studies that evaluate and compare the indexing service already installed in a given institution. However, it is noticed that there are efforts on the part of the authors to develop or even improve facilitating instruments that help the user to have an increasingly efficient information search recovery, be it in the form of doctrine, judgment, legislation or jurisprudence. Therefore, based on the data shown in this research, it is suggested that libraries and information centers (which work with indexing in the legal domain) promote the strengthening of dialogue and interdisciplinarity between Librarianship, Information Science and Law, in the search for the improvement of professional practices that will positively impact the user's experience and satisfaction when using information retrieval services

It is the role of the university publisher to enable society to access, in the most inclusive way possible, the academic, technical and scientific intellectual product, whether originated in it or not, if it can contribute to the improvement of that same society. In this sense, this research aimed to evaluate the accessibility provided by the Public Federal University Publishers of Brazil, in favour of the right of access to reading, information and communication by People with Disabilities. This is a descriptive research, with a qualitative and quantitative approach, which makes use of bibliographic and documentary research, and uses as an instrument for data collection an online questionnaire created through the SurveyMonkey tool. From the universe of 45 university publishers, which are associated with the Brazilian Association of University Publishers (ABEU), 17 responded to the questionnaire. Entre os principais resultados verificou-se que nenhuma das editoras possui departamento ou comissão para tratar questões voltadas para acessibilidade. Bem como há pouca interação entre elas e os Núcleos de Acessibilidade existentes nas instituições públicas federais. Das respondentes, 76,47% indicou que, ao elaborar materiais para divulgação das publicações, questões relacionadas à acessibilidade não são consideradas. It was also verified that in more than 75% of the publishers, the websites have practically no accessibility features, such as translation into LIBRAS, use of videos with subtitles, possibility of changing contrast, presence of a site map, among others. Most publishers (94.12%) stated that they had little or no knowledge about the Brazilian Law on Inclusion of People with Disabilities (Law 13.146/2015), despite the fact that this law has parts that directly affect the work of publishers. And the greatest difficulties mentioned by publishers to work on accessibility issues refer to the lack of financial resources, qualified human resources and adequate infrastructure / technological resources. It is concluded that it is essential that federal public university publishers in Brazil endeavour to develop concrete strategies and actions to ensure equitable access to information for people with disabilities and to create specific policies and regulations that promote inclusion and accessibility at all stages of the production and dissemination process of their publications.

It aims to identify solutions based on big data that helped combat the Covid-19 pandemic. This research is justified by the importance given to information as an instrument to combat the pandemic, as well as by the interdisciplinary nature given to research related to the Covid-19 topic and the high number of data produced in this context. The systematic literature mapping method was used to identify the main tools that were developed and/or used during the pandemic period in order to minimize the negative impacts caused by the health crisis. A search was carried out for scientific articles focused on the themes “big data and Covid-19” in the BRAPCI (Referential Database of Journal Articles in Information Science) and Web of Science (WoS) databases, which included the recovery of 60 complete works, of which 29 were used in this research. The results presented were divided into 17 categories, 6 themes and 11 tools, which were created based on the records and content analysis of the collected material. The present study helps to expand knowledge about the possibilities of solutions that can assist the population in times of similar emergency conditions

It aims to understand the intellectual structure of the PQ-CI-CNPQ to identify authorial and thematic intellectual influences, based on the scientific production published from 1972 to 2019. To this end, it aims to develop categories of analysis for the periodic production of these actors as well as their influences intellectuals; compare the intellectual structure at different times, aiming to observe the evolutionary trajectory of authors and themes in the field in these intervals; and to identify thematic and intellectual formulation patterns, verifying how these are established in the periods, contributing to the advancement of knowledge in the area. It foresees carrying out the research using Citation Study and Social Network Analysis, together with the investigation of historical and sociological aspects, with the aim of understanding the intellectual structure of a representative portion of the area with the support of information technologies. It presents as methodological procedures a process of eight executable steps to obtain the results, which ranges from the identification of the research agents (the PQ-CI-CNPQ), through the data collection, its standardization and processing, as well as interviews with the agents, categorization of the identified intellectual influences, and at the end the analysis of the relationships found. It expects as results the generation of networks of intellectual relations of the PQ-CI-CNPq, the identification of the intellectual structures of the PQ-CI-CNPq, as well as the identification of thematic and intellectual formulation patterns without a temporal line. It presents as partial results the performance of a pre-test carried out with one of the PQ-CI-CNPQ

The challenge of practicing Open Science meets a collective, collaborative, social, shared and interdisciplinary science. These predicates characterize a contemporary science and imply the renewal of scientific practice. In order to better understand this phenomenon of transformation in the way of doing science, the investigations of this research were concentrated on the practices and thoughts of researchers in the Health Sciences in relation to the use of open laboratory notebooks, one of the axes studied by the great theme Open Science. To this end, the objective is to propose a theory about open scientific practices from the use of laboratory notebooks by researchers from the Keizo Asami Institute (iLIKA), relating it to Edgar Morin's Complex Thinking. To achieve this, the Grounded Theory (GT) was used as a methodological framework, under the constructivist approach of Kathy Charmaz. In view of this, the research has a qualitative focus and is classified in terms of means (procedures) as a case study, since it exhaustively investigated the phenomena and practices in a specific context. As for the ends, it is characterized as explanatory, since there was a concern to identify and explain which factors (and why) contribute to or determine the occurrence of certain practices and phenomena. A total of 13 researchers were interviewed and, based on their statements, 10 categories were identified through in vivo codes, namely: establishing partnerships, training human resources, advising on the use of laboratory notebooks, attributing importance to the use of laboratory notebooks, deprecating the use of laboratory notebooks, maintaining confidentiality, facing barriers, communicating science,  using the data and opening the data.  These categories express the phenomenon within the context studied, emerging a theory to the practices related to laboratory notebooks,  the self-organization of the dichotomy between communication and secrecy in science. Therefore, there are challenges for a reform of thought that escapes the disjunction of knowledge and moves towards interactions and totality. 

This research is about the delineation of the essential informational resources for the informational environment of University Observatories of Science, Technology and Innovation. These observatories are structures already consolidated and with recognition within society and can assist in the providing of prepared information directed to the informational necessities of users and in the creation of specific indicators that can support decision-making. This study main objective is to identify the adequate informational resources for the implementation and operation of a University Observatory of Science, Technology and Innovation. Its specific objectives are: identifying informational sources, services and systems responsible for providing primary data aimed at a University Observatory of Science, Technology and Innovation; presenting the information resource entities essential to the effective functioning of the informational environment of a University Observatory of Science, Technology and Innovation; presenting a model of informational environment to Observatories of Science, Technology and Innovation aimed at university institutions. This research is descriptive regarding its nature, exploratory regarding its objectives and documentary and case study regarding its means. It makes use of the Infomapping method for the mapping of informational resources of the OtletCI Observatory. In the results, it was presented and analyzed the informational resources identified through the four stages of the Infomapping method and then a model of informational environment to University Observatories of Science, Technology and Innovation was proposed. Ultimately, it is understood that the results achieved by this research represent an expansion of the structural and operational understanding regarding the functioning of a Science, Technology and Innovation Observatory, focusing higher education institutions.

This is an exploratory research, using a bibliographic procedure, for the development of a Systematic Literature Review (RSL) around the theme Cultural Diffusion. The objective is to give an understanding of the concept of Cultural Diffusion in Information Units, based on Brazilian production. In specific terms, the objective is to map the scientific productions that address the theme of Cultural Diffusion in Information Units; Establish connections and divergences about Cultural Diffusion in the professional areas that make up the Information Units and; Discuss the epistemic aspects of Cultural Diffusion and its application in the context of Information Units. From a methodological point of view, RSL is used, as it is an auditable, reproducible, impartial method that reduces the number of research biases from explicit and pre-defined methodological paths through a research protocol to obtain the data. It is partially concluded that Cultural Diffusion activities are practices inherent to the information professional and actively contribute to the fulfillment of the Information Unit's social role.

As Bibliotecas Nacionais possuem acervos variados e são responsáveis, dentro outras coisas, por armazenar, representar e dá acesso a esse acervo. As obras de ficção literárias também fazem parte do acervo das Bibliotecas Nacionais, todavia o processo de representação da informação apresenta peculiaridades que dificultam a representação, principalmente, de conteúdo: indexação. Essa percepção levou a elaboração de modelos para fins de indexação, um dos modelos são as Diretrizes para Indexação de Obras Estético-Literárias que será aplicado nesse trabalho, demonstrando um percurso dialógico para a indexação. Dessa forma, objetivo geral é demonstrar como a filosofia da linguagem de Mikhail Bakhtin, sobretudo a sua concepção de gêneros do discurso e dialogismo, podem contribuir para o processo de indexação através do percurso dialógico de ficção literária abordado nas DIEL. Tem-se como objetivos específicos: discutir a importância da Organização da Informação no processo de leitura documentária; expor como a filosofia da linguagem de Mikhail Bakhtin pode contribuir para a Ciência da Informação, sobretudo na indexação; aplicar as  Diretrizes para Indexação de Obras Estético-Literárias; Analisar a representação de quatro obras ficção literárias catalogadas em bibliotecas nacionais, de países da América Latina, para realizar a comparação com os resultados obtidos através da aplicação das DIEL.

Recognizing the importance of communication and scientific dissemination for the scientific production generated in Research and Teaching Institutions, and understanding that publicity directly implies the generation of new knowledge and the development of science and technology and, above all, fulfilling the social responsibility of public bodies towards society, this research aimed to analyze the impact of the scientific production of researchers from the Instituto Aggeu Magalhães (IAM/Fiocruz), a public institution in S&T, linked to the Ministry of Health (MS), in the period from 2014 to 2020. exploratory research with a qualitative-quantitative approach and application of a case study. To analyze the scientific production, a search was carried out on articles from journals indexed in the Web of Science, Google Scholar databases and registered in the Institutional Repository - RI (ARCA/Fiocruz). The sample included 45 researchers in public health at the IAM/Fiocruz, whose production of 1,147 journal articles was extracted from Lattes Curriculum, using the ScriptLattes tool. The study mapped the scientific production of IAM researchers, about the type of production, authorship, and title of journals; verified if the generated production is registered in ARCA and indexed in the Google Scholar and Web of Science databases; and analyzed the impact of production based on metric indicators (citation and productivity), and investigated whether scientific and technological information in health is registered and accessible for the generation of new knowledge and the evaluation of science. From the analysis, it is concluded that the Google Scholar database presented the greatest impact on published and registered articles, in contrast to the Institutional Repository ARCA, which presented the lowest registration. The study reinforced the importance of registration and access to scientific and technological production in Health and made clear the need for self-archiving and compliance with Fiocruz’s mandatory Policy for the deposit of articles in the RI (ARCA)

The aim of this study was to analyze the user experience recommendations that can be identified in the digital information environments of the Central Library of the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE). The quadripolar method was used. The epistemological pole positioned the research in the post-custodial and technological paradigm, and defined the research problem and objectives. The theoretical pole addressed the need for information in the context of cyberculture; the university library and its digital information services; and the user experience and its influence in digital environments. In the technical pole, the research is characterized as descriptive, applied and quali-quantitative. It makes use of multiple case studies in the digital environments of the UFPE Central Library.
The heuristics methods of Nielsen and Molich (1990) and the application of the User Experience Questionnaire of Laugwitz, Held and Schrepp (2008) were also used. The morphological pole presents the results achieved, which identified failures in the pragmatic and hedonic issues of the digital environments analysed, such as usability and accessibility, besides the absence of informational resources considered relevant by users, which resulted in bad experiences in the interactions of these users with the environments evaluated. It is concluded that the informational digital environments of the Central Library of UFPE present flaws that hinder the access and the navigability of users, needing to be worked to provide improved experiences, bringing satisfaction and, perhaps, an increase of use and productivity in the use

This study aimed to examine the characteristics of information behavior of women victims of domestic violence with respect to the social barriers to accessing information. The specific objectives are - a) To describe the circumstances that encouraged victims of domestic violence to seek information; b) Identify the type of guidance they were looking for and which characterized the information they needed; c) To analyse the information behavior of women as they accessed information in the fight against violence. From the point of view of the methodological approach, the reflections of this research mention the work developed in the area of Information Science (CI) by Chatman (1996, 1999, 2000), specifically in his analysis of social barriers to access to information. Data were collected through three specific procedures: document analysis, semi-structured interviews with professionals from the Centro das Mulheres do Cabo (CMC), and, finally, semi-structured interviews with four women victims of domestic violence who sought care through the CMC. The exploration of the results was carried out based on content analysis and, therefore, the messages were grouped into three molar categories, plus a regrouping of seven molecular categories. The first conclusion of this study is that domestic violence is the most dangerous and cruel face of all the coercion and constraints to which women are subjected. The study contributes to highlight the social issues that cross information flows. The social norms that shape the information behavior of the women interviewed are explained in the acceptance and naturalization of this violence, keeping their information needs confidential, as a self-protection resource, and it is reasonable to assume that these women lived in an impoverished informational life reality. Furthermore, the study potentiated new points of view on the importance and social magnitude of the feminist movement, specifically the CMC, an non-governmental organization (NGO) that works on several fronts in the fight against domestic violence and femicide.

This report presents an ongoing research on the network society studied by Manuel Castells and the new aspects of the network evidenced by the Cluetrain Manifesto. People gathered in a network gained autonomy and freedom to express their experiences with companies and assumed power in commercial relationships. Networked people's conversations have come to represent the companies' markets. The conversations of networked workers have come to reveal the secrets that companies try to hide from their employees and their markets. The domain of the network was taken from the companies by the people and the Cluetrain Manifesto can complement Castells' vision of the beginning of the formation of the network with new aspects of the network that remain evolving and being observed by the manifesto. The objective of the research is to present the Cluetrain Manifesto as an expanded, contemporary theory that is constantly being updated as an object of study for Information Science, establishing a theoretical-conceptual approximation between the processes of information communication in the network society in Castells and in the manifest. The research methodology encompasses descriptive, bibliographic and documentary research. Data collection is bibliographic and documentary. Data analysis will be performed by interpretive analysis and the results will be presented in the dissertation work. It is expected as a result the identification of the complementarity of ideas about Castells' network society in the ideas being developed by the Cluetrain manifesto. 

It treats of representation of information and the knowledge of artistic-pictorial series. As the general objective, it proposes a methodological path of representation, starting from the approach used by Medeiros (2017) which contemplates the specificities of this type of iconographic document for the construction of new documentary products (indexes and concept maps). It uses a methodological triangulation for the conceptual delimitation and identification, categorization and sistematization of subjects through the perspectives of Medeiros (2017) and Medeiros and Pinho (2017; 2018a), with memorial purpose. As the result, it presents the deepening of the knowledge produced by the interpretation of the artistic-pictorial series and the enlargement of possibilities for application of representation instruments of this documental type in the identification/formation of new documentary representations for the comprehension of social memory

It aimed to analyse how the use of computational autonomous agents or bots, in the internet context, has influenced the execution of informational processes and the interaction with human beings, under the perspective of Information Science (IC). The research is characterized as bibliographic and descriptive and was conducted based on a Systematic Mapping of Literature; documentary analysis; and systematic direct observation of the use of some of the bots. Multiple case studies were conducted with real cases of bots that operate performing activities related to information on the internet, in order to verify the informational processes performed, limitations, benefits, developments, as well as the influence on themes of the IC area. As a result, it was noticed that bots, regardless of their purpose, perform several types of informational processes, and that they can act in a beneficial or harmful way. It was observed that they still have limitations when the informational process involves cognition, empathy and creativity, considered human abilities. In some cases, it was found that there are problems because they do not meet ethical, moral and/or legal restrictions. We conclude that several themes worked in the context of IC are relevant for research involving bots. Thus, it is necessary that information professionals consider artificial intelligence and its products as entities that act on the information available in the network, so this performance should be studied from the perspective of IC, since these "non-human" actors interact with humans and among themselves, and act on informational processes

Um dos grandes desafios da sociedade atual é o fenómeno da desinformação. As mudanças neste modelo trazem novos obstáculos para os indivíduos, que não residem na grande quantidade de informação produzida que está disponível diariamente no seu sistema cognitivo, mas a um nível que é mais difícil de interpretar, resultando numa mistura de informação verdadeira com informação falsa que é intencionalmente propagada. Com base neste problema, o objetivo desta investigação é refletir sobre os esforços da pesquisa científica em ciências da informação no Brasil, no domínio da competência em informação, como uma contribuição para mitigar o fenómeno da desinformação. É uma pesquisa com delimitação descritiva e qualitativa, que foi desenvolvida por uma revisão da produção científica na Base de Dados Referencial de Artigos de Periódicos em Ciência da Informação (BRAPCI), que utiliza como estratégias de análises a Bibliometria e a Análise de Conteúdo, em consonância com as categorias de Belluzo (2018) relacionadas com a competência de informação. Como parte dos resultados, foram constatados 26 artigos indexados com tendência de crescimento de trabalhos, o que confirma o interesse da CI pela temática. Na compilação das contribuições da competência em informação, ficou evidente a sugestão como melhor resposta para mitigar os impactos do fenômeno da desinformação. Dadas as complexidades do mundo da sociedade contemporânea, a competência em informação é a ferramenta disponível da CI diante deste problema, reconhecendo que as notícias falsas se tornaram uma característica permanente do ambiente informacional

As ameaças constantes que atingem as bibliotecas surgiram há algum tempo, intervém nisto, fatores externos sobre economia, política e tecnologia, assim como, os fatores internos da profissão e como se enfrentar diante de tais circunstâncias; adiciona-se também, os atuais desafios próprios da pandemia de COVID-19; essas demandas colocam em risco o futuro e a permanência das bibliotecas no século XXI. Em virtude das circunstâncias, o propósito desta pesquisa consiste em investigar a inovação como processo chave para as bibliotecas latino-americanas do século XXI. A partir do enfoque qualitativo, a metodologia, quanto aos fins é do tipo descritiva e para isto, em primeiro lugar, consultam-se algumas das bases de dados reconhecidas da área da Ciência da Informação. Considerando as evidências bibliográficas, a pesquisa se contextualiza na região latino-americana, de tal modo que, depois por meio da técnica de análise documental se procura identificar e selecionar significados e ações sobre o processo da inovação nas bibliotecas da América Latina. Apesar da ausência de algum manual feito pela Federação Internacional de Associações e Instituições Bibliotecárias, que aborde com exclusividade os assuntos conceituais sobre a inovação no âmbito das bibliotecas, não obstante, observa-se nas práticas das bibliotecas a inovação progressiva e por sua vez, as bibliotecas latino-americanas continuam presentes e respondendo aos estímulos externos e internos para conseguir se adaptar as mudanças da ordem mundial, embora precise fortalecer a visibilidade tanto local como internacionalmente.

Desde as sociedades greco-romanas até a modernidade, as biografias ocidentais descreviam sobre os sujeitos pertencentes às classes de mais alto prestígio social, quer estivessem inseridas no campo político, econômico ou religioso. Contudo, a partir do século XVIII surgiram os primeiros registros autobiográficos de sujeitos negros ex-escravizados do Mundo Atlântico. A pesquisa estuda a Biografia de Mahommah Gardo Baquaqua: um nativo de Zoogoo, no interior da África, publicada pela Editora Uirapuru, no ano de 2017. Editado originalmente nos Estados Unidos no ano de 1854, o livro narra as memórias de um africano, nativo da cidade de Djougou, atual região da República do Benim, capturado e escravizado no continente africano em 1840, Mahommah Gardo Baquaqua viveu como escravo em Pernambuco e no Rio de Janeiro, conseguindo notavelmente sua liberdade nos Estados Unidos, na cidade de Nova Iorque. A dissertação tem como objetivo geral a análise das memórias e dos lugares de memória da narrativa biográfica de Mahommah Gardo Baquaqua para a reconstrução das memórias individual, coletiva e editorial do movimento abolicionista americano do século XIX. A metodologia se fundamenta por meio da  pesquisa bibliográfica, documental,  descritiva,  qualitativa. Os conceitos da Organização da Informação (OI) foram utilizados para decomposição e descrição do conteúdo informacional, as técnicas de análise documental e análise temática direcionaram a reconstrução das  memórias. A fundamentação teórica foi construída a partir dos estudos de Lovejoy (2002),  Law e Lovejoy (2001), Davis e Gates (1985), Sekora (1987), Halbwachs (2006), Nora (1993), Reis e Silva (1989) e Azevedo (2003).    As considerações finais apontam as contribuições do estudo para a Memória das Vítimas da Escravidão do Comércio Transaltântico e para a  Década Internacional dos Afrodescendentes (2015-2024) coordenadas pela Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU) e pela Organização das Nações Unidas para a Educação, a Ciência e a Cultura (Unesco), para reafirmação das memórias e dos lugares de memórias como legado cultural para humanidade e para fortalecimento da identidade contemporânea dos sujeitos de ascendencia africana. 

A pesquisa analisa a influência dos sistemas de avaliação e financiamento da pesquisa utilizados por Capes/CNPq, nos padrões de publicação dos pesquisadores das Ciências da Saúde (CdS) no Brasil no período 2010-2016. O trabalho se enquadra na perspectiva pragmatista da Ciência da Informação. Aborda os processos de produção e acumulação de registros do conhecimento científico no contexto brasileiro das CdS, e analisa se são influenciados pelos mecanismos de avaliação e financiamento da pesquisa das duas principais agências de fomento no país. Metodologicamente, a pesquisa realiza uma análise cientométrica da produção científica das CdS no Brasil, caracteriza essa produção e verifica a existência de padrões de publicação, bem como de mudanças / tendências nesses padrões. Essa análise é complementada, por um lado, pelo referencial teórico das culturas epistêmicas, desenvolvido por Karin Knorr-Cetina no contexto dos estudos da sociologia do conhecimento científico, para argumentar que diferentes áreas do saber são domínios epistemológicos diversos, com normas e convenções específicas, que regem os processos de produção e disseminação do conhecimento. Por outro lado, é complementada com o quadro teórico de Richard Whitley sobre os sistemas de avaliação e financiamento “fracos” e “fortes”, como dispositivos teórico-conceituais que estabelecem prioridades e estimulam comportamentos específicos nos pesquisadores.  Os dados sobre a produção científica são coletados a partir da plataforma Lattes. A pesquisa utiliza uma amostra aleatória estratificada, conformada por estratos que representam grupos homogêneos de pesquisadores, considerando se são submetidos ou não aos processos de avaliação. Realiza uma análise documental dos critérios de avaliação utilizados pelos Comitês de Área de Capes/CNPq nas CdS, para caracterizar seus processos de avaliação, bem como para determinar se os padrões de publicação e as mudanças / tendências observadas estão alinhadas com os incentivos estabelecidos por esses critérios. Aplica questionários e entrevistas a uma amostra aleatória estratificada de pesquisadores, para analisar se as suas escolhas dos veículos de comunicação são influenciadas ou não pelos critérios de avaliação utilizados pelos sistemas de avaliação de Capes/CNPq. Os resultados mostram que, enquanto a produção científica dos pesquisadores submetidos às avaliações se caracteriza pelo predomínio crescente da produção de artigos em revistas revisadas por pares, particularmente, em revistas indexadas nas bases de dados da Web of Science (WoS), com Fator de Impacto do Journal Citation Report (JCR), publicadas em inglês, por editoras comerciais especializadas nas CdS, a dos pesquisadores não submetidos às avaliações é comunicada, predominantemente, por meio de artigos em revistas não indexadas na WoS, sem Fator de Impacto do JCR, publicadas em português, por editoras comerciais não especializadas em CdS. Verifica-se o alinhamento da produção científica dos pesquisadores submetidos às avaliações com os critérios de avaliação utilizados pelos RES Capes/CNPq. Observa-se que as escolhas dos veículos de comunicação por parte dos pesquisadores estão influenciadas por vários fatores. No caso dos pesquisadores submetidos às avaliações, destacam aqueles mais diretamente relacionados com os critérios de avaliação, com uma comunicação científica efetiva e com o incremento da reputação e, no caso dos não submetidos, aqueles mais vinculados com lograr uma comunicação científica efetiva

It is approached the process of transformation from invisibility to visibility of the three-dimensional objects of popular culture that despite being visible in its physical state, there is hidden information that is not contextualized in the information treatment process, causing limitation of informational potentialities. In this sense, the aim of this research is to promote a reflection on three-dimensional objects of popular culture and its transformation into a document, having, in the musealization process, elements that allow to identify and elucidate visible and invisible aspects and to value the heritage from material realities and memories not yet evidenced. As a methodological support we resorted to the Biography of objects, for presenting subsidies to record and make visible the largest possible number of information based on the trajectory of cultural assets and a whole context still unknown. In this perspective, we used the Maria dos Bichos Collection inserted in the NUPPO (Núcleo de Pesquisa e Documentação da Cultura Popular) from the Paraíba Federal University (UFPB) to meet and ratify our thesis. We support this investigation in the Symbolic Systems of Objects for the understanding of the attribution of values, senses, meanings and conventions granted to cultural vestiges, people and situations based on social and cultural relations and expose the hidden to the materiality of tangible things. Therefore, the research allowed to produce information from revealed memories that transcend the visual expository narratives of the objects. Thus, we know and preserve stories and memories of people, the institution and the regional culture.
