estudo de caso na Biblioteca do IFPA Campus Santarém

Abstract

It deals with the mediation of information aimed at environmental sustainability in the context of university libraries. The objective of the research is to identify information mediation actions in favor of sustainable development carried out at the Library of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Pará - Santarém Campus, in light of the 2030 Agenda. The study is justified, in Information Science, by the alignment of the area with the environmental agenda in the perspective of a theoretical foundation for actions in different information units and in order to inspire research and debates on the topic. It is exploratory in nature, has a qualitative approach and adopts the case study method, including literature review, bibliographic and documentary research. For data collection, an electronic questionnaire with questions directed at the library team was used, and Bardin's Content Analysis was used as a technique for data analysis. Among the results, it is observed that the respondents are aware of the Sustainable Development Goals, that the goals most covered by mediation actions are 4, 9, 10, 16 and 17 and that the main challenges are financial limitations and the lack of professional training on the subject. It was concluded that it is advisable to deepen the relationship between mediating actions and the Sustainable Development Goals and establish a partnership with senior university management so that the library acts as a strategic piece for achieving the global sustainability plan.
