Empreendedorismo e consultoria informacional na área jurídica

This article analyzes the information services in the legal area for the provision of advice consultancy by librarians. To this end, librarians were given legal consultancy services information needs were identified in the legal area and proposed services that can be offered by librarians in this area. This is a qualitative, bibliographic and descriptive research. To develop this work, a questionnaire was applied with librarians registered in the Regional Council of Librarianship of Santa Catarina (14th Region) who work with legal information in Florianopolis to be able to map librarians who provide legal services in the legal area, identify needs of information in the legal area and propose services that can be offered by librarians in the legal area. It is concluded that there are no librarians working in an entrepreneurial way as consultants in the legal area in the state, but it has been verified that there are many services that can be explored in the legal field such as Selective Dissemination of Information, Reference Service, internal projects and external, programs and training courses for the use of legal information sources, among other niches. It was also observed that during the survey most librarians working with legal information are public servants, few work in the private sector and none provide services in the area as an information consultant autonomously. Therefore, it is up to the librarian to be trained and to know the possibilities to accompany this niche
