| description | Epistemology is the study of the possibility and nature of human knowledge and, as agencies that are concerned with the records of that knowledge; now in both electronic and paper media it seems reasonable to explore the epistemology of library and information work and education for the information occupations. It is clear that, whatever our understanding of the way in which knowledge is created among humans, the records of that knowledge have some 'real' existence - knowledge, that is, what is in the intellectual apparatus of the individual (or 'between two ears' as Drucker puts it) may be socially constructed, but what can be recorded of that knowledge, that is, what we otherwise call 'information', takes a 'real' form. The 'real' form may be difficult to see, as in the case of the symbols cut by a laser on a CD-ROM, or the bits recorded on a hard disc, but they are there. This paper will consider the consequences of a realist epistemology for library and archival science and for education in these fields. |

Epistemologia é o estudo da possibilidade e natureza do conhecimento humano e, como agências que se ocupam dos registros desse conhecimento, agora em meios eletrônicos e impressos, parece razoável explorar a epistemologia do trabalho e do ensino em Informação e em Biblioteconomia para as profissões da informação. É claro que qualquer que seja nossa compreensão sobre o modo com que o conhecimento é construído nos seres humanos, os registros desse conhecimento têm alguma existência “real”. Conhecimento, isto é, aquilo que está no aparato intelectual do indivíduo (ou “entre duas orelhas”, como Drucker menciona), pode ser socialmente construído, mas o que pode ser registrado desse conhecimento, isto é, aquilo que de outro modo chamamos de “informação”, toma uma forma “real”. A forma “real” pode ser difícil de ser vista, como no caso dos símbolos cortados a laser em um CD-ROM, ou os bits gravados em um disco rígido, mas ali estão. Este trabalho considerará as conseqüências de uma epistemologia realista para a Biblioteconomia e Arquivologia e para o ensino nesses campos. 2009-10-17 2022-03-21T17:22:40Z 2022-03-21T17:22:40Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/43 10.36311/1981-1640.2008.v2n1.02.p3 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/70471 por eng https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/43/2044 https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/43/2046 https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/43/5158 application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências Brazilian Journal of Information Science: Research Trends; Vol. 2 No. 1 (2008) Brazilian Journal of Information Science: Research Trends; Vol. 2 Núm. 1 (2008) Brazilian Journal of Information Science: research trends; v. 2 n. 1 (2008) 1981-1640 |
