COMPETÊNCIA EM INFORMAÇÃO E O TRABALHADOR DO CONHECIMENTO: COMPREENDENDO AS ABORDAGENS NAS PRODUÇÕES CIENTÍFICAS NA CIÊNCIA DA INFORMAÇÃO

Abstract

This article seeks to characterize the relationships between information competences and the knowledge worker through: mapping, in scientific journals A1 focused on CI (Information & Society: Studies; TransInformation; Perspectives in Information Science), available on the Sucupira Platform (Quadriênio 2013-2016), in the period from 2015 to 2019, the articles that deal, individually, with the terms “information skills” and “knowledge worker”, as well as those that express relations between them. To this end, this research report was constructed through an investigative, qualitative and descriptive study based on review, bibliographic analysis and content analysis on the subject in question. The studies conclude that, in the scope of the investigated journals and the research period, publications on information skills are in evidence compared to those aimed at the knowledge worker. The analyzed publications do not refer to the relationship between the knowledge worker and the information skills necessary for the development of their work. They also conclude that publications about the knowledge worker are scarce.
