Information management is an essential condition for promoting efficiency, effectiveness and quality in Public Administration. This managerial process includes elements that make up the dynamics of the good functioning of organizations, mainly in meeting legal requirements. This research aims to analyze information management in bidding waivers, in the period of the Covid-19 pandemic, in public universities in the State of Alagoas. For this purpose, it seeks, specifically, to map the normative devices that establish criteria for waiving bids at universities; identify the information needs according to the requirements for these bidding exemptions; survey the information made available about the bidding waiver processes; characterize the availability of information as a process of transparency in the scope of these bidding exemptions; and verify the conditions of use of information in institutional channels, based on an information management model. Procedurally, this is descriptive research, operationalized via the study of multiple cases, comprising the State University of Alagoas (Uneal), the State University of Health Sciences of Alagoas (Uncisal) and the Federal University of Alagoas (Ufal). A mixed approach was adopted, which includes quantitative and qualitative data. Electronic documents were raised on the conditions for waiving bids, as well as the functioning of the information management systems of the referred universities, considering the elements, processes and flows involved. The data analyzed in the research come from two main bibliographical and documentary sources, respectively, previously published material and official websites of universities and the website of the Brazilian Plateau with analysis of legislation. Scientific findings have been organized into charts, graphs and diagrams to facilitate understanding. The results show that the Bidding Waiver Law, Law nº 14.133/2021, and the Access to Information Law, Law nº 12.527/2011, are the main normative devices that support the bidding exemptions, in the period of the Covid-19 pandemic, establishing criteria and needs for providing information on dismissal processes. Ufal prioritized the disclosure of its bidding exemptions on a new platform, the Integrated System of Assets, Administration and Contracts (Sipac), Uneal made the disclosure on the transparency website of the State of Alagoas and Uncisal made the bidding processes available on its place. The institutions make information available in known formats, such as PDF or DOCX, and with information accessibility, such as the use of the Brazilian Sign Language (Libras), to serve deaf and low vision users. Ufal was the institution that provided the greatest amount of information on waiving bids carried out on its official website. Uneal and Uncisal did not have the same performance in broadly disseminating information about their bids, which certainly makes it difficult for the population to verify their actions and may contribute to a decrease in the population's confidence regarding the use of public funds. It is considered that it is important that educational institutions promote the wide dissemination of information about their purchases and hiring, including about exemptions from tenders, promoting transparency and reliability in society.

The use of processes and electronics in the Brazilian context began in the 1990s, being intensified from the 2000s. The insertion of this new type of documents in the public sector, together with the change in social behavior experienced by May of the insertion of Information and Communication Technologies, generated a concern with the security of these documents that they could be accessed quickly, easily, accessible and accurately by citizens. Thus, this context of expectations was stimulated for the incorporation of information systems. The present work refers to a master's research whose central theme is the analysis of an information system in a public organization. The guiding question of the research: What are the main challenges faced in the implementation of the Electronic Information System at the Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Alagoas, from the perspective of electronic governance? The main objective is to understand the implementation of the Electronic Information System at the Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Alagoas as a tool to support Electronic Governance in the state of Alagoas. And the specific objectives are: To describe Document Management within the framework of the Research Support Foundation of the State of Alagoas; describe the Electronic Information System at the Research Support Foundation of the State of Alagoas; identify the main difficulties faced in the implementation of the Electronic Information System at the Research Support Foundation of the State of Alagoas; verify the main benefits perceived with the implementation of the Electronic Information System in the Research Support Foundation of the State of Alagoas. The methodology has a qualitative and quantitative approach, with an exploratory-descriptive type of research. As a result of the survey, 100% of those approved agree that the SEI contributes to the foundation's document management process, and as for the profile of the interviewees, the high level of academic qualification of the foundation's employees stands out, such as post-graduate academic (43.6%), master's (28.2%), complete higher education (20.5%), incomplete higher education (2.6%) and doctorate (2.6%). The implementation of SEI in FAPEAL was legally imposed by the government of Alagoas, but it has proved to be very satisfactory for carrying out the foundation's activities.

Within the context of Information Science, it is verified the existence of the information unit public library, which is characterized as a typological segment of specialty to the interest of this domain. The public library resonates in the amplitude of its social function as a cultural equipment conducive to the appropriation of information and, therefore, it must have its actions linked to society. In this scenario, the present research addresses fundamental presentations of concepts and historical aspects about the origins of the public library, bringing its relation with Information Science and Librarianship itself. Regarding the purpose, it points out the concepts related to the existing municipal public libraries in the state of Alagoas, showing different aspects related to their existence, maintenance and operation, such as: information on its creation, amount of collection, professional training of its agents, accessibility, among others. In the methodological scope, the research proposes to develop an exploratory study, focusing on the existing municipal public libraries in the state of Alagoas, going into aspects that represent this existence. In this perspective, it aims at evidencing, consequently, the particularities of the responding institutions in the survey. It also uses descriptive research as from surveys of data extracted from questionnaires, but also outlines itself as bibliographic and documental research for theoretical bases structured in literature review. Therefore, the quali-quantitative approach was chosen as the preponderant factor for the appreciation of the descriptive elements aiming at a theoretical contextualization of the specialized literature. Data collection took place by means of variables considered pertinent in the predominant understanding of the literature selected as a theoretical repertoire, and, for the survey, an analysis was performed from specific resources, namely: e-mails, websites, digital networks, among other means of contact considering the volume of answers. Verifying the analysis resulting from this study, it is possible to highlight that being Alagoas formed by 102 municipalities, the study on public libraries requires a continuous effort, because it is observed the lack under different aspects in the reality of these 37 public libraries analyzed through this study. And yet, the lack of a librarian professional in these institutions is a preponderant factor for the non-evolution of these spaces of social knowledge. Therefore, this study is not intended to exhaust the discussions, but to stimulate the interest of future research on the subject. It is possible to state that the public library represents a path of professional challenges, but also a social opportunity to expand the offer of knowledge to people. Therefore, it is understood that the public library implies in the constitutional dimension by the Magna Carta in force in Brazil, which ensures the right to information for the exercise of full citizenship. Finally, in respect for human diversity, the public library must assume a relevant role in contemporary society to foster culture, privileging spaces of interaction that reconcile dialogues for the records of knowledge and the notion of collective memory instituted locally.

The research has as its central objective to diagnose the theoretical and empirical relationships between the terms "Competence in Information" and "Digital Inclusion". The research methodology is basic and quantitative in nature, bibliographic, documentary, descriptive and content analysis. We sought to the scientific journals of brapci, scopus, scielo and google scholar databases, published in the period 2018-2021. For this purpose, the comparative method is used, based on the following specific objectives, to Roll the CoInfo necessary to promote the strengthening of the Digital Inclusion process and to map, together with the databases, the publications that present theoretical and empirical relational propositions between Competence in Information and Digital Inclusion. Como resultado parcial, afirma-se que a relação entre CoInfo e Inclusão Digital foi efetivada apenas por um autor dos textos analisados, fato que chama a atenção, haja vista que, tal relação, trata-se de um tema relevante na era digital, sobretudo, para o campo da Ciência da Informação no Brasil. It was also noticed that the Brazilian political system of digital inclusion needs to invest in teaching-learning environments, in order to contribute to the development of CoInfo, including archives, libraries, museums and cultural centers, because they are places that construct knowledge, as well as the use and appropriation of information in the digital environment, as an instrument for conquering citizenship for all and for all. It can be affirmed that, in a way, the race for the construction of an Information Society in Brazil, which occurred in the 2000s is still in process, needing to emphasize that digital inclusion cannot be understood only as synonymous with installations and use of computers by the low-income population, only focused on training: technical, capacitive and instrumentalist, and rather, as an instrument applied to political, economic, cultural and informational development, enhancing, therefore, the capacity of criticality about the social reality in which the individual is inserted, in order to contribute to its social and digital transformation.

The coconut breakers are groups of agro-extractivist women whose culture and income are linked to babassu extraction activities. There are several aspects of this group living and labor culture that can be objects of scientific research. This research is driven by the following questions: what is the nature of scientific production on babassu coconut breakers subject on the database Capes Theses and Dissertations Catalog (CTD/CAPES)? And what are the approaches discussed in those scientific productions? As main objective: to identify the nature of scientific productions about babassu nut breakers at CTD/CAPES, in the period between 2013 and 2021. Specific objectives are: a) To carry out a data survey on the scientific productions that investigates the theme “babaçu coconut breakers” in the Catalog of Theses and Dissertations - CAPES; b) Specify the focus of the theses and dissertations that address the topic. c) Check the Graduate Programs (PPGs) that research the theme; d) Score the areas of concentration and lines of research that investigate coconut breakers; e) Point out the study fields of the theses and dissertations gathered; f) Verify the geographical locations in which the theme is being investigated; g) Indicate the education institutions (colleges) explore the theme. The study is typified as descriptive research with documental inclinations, a quali-quantitative approach. For data collection, it was applied a survey gathering method. The research analysis is a compound of thirty-three records gathered. Through the specific objectives, the categories of analysis were established and segmented into two blocks. The first block deals with data related to the characteristics of the theses and dissertations, as well as programs and institutions to which they are linked, areas of concentration and lines of research, study fields, and location. The second block set up on the results and presents the approaches of the documents and it is segmented into the following categories: social movement, cooperative organization, and resistance of babassu nut breakers; notions of territoriality, land rights, and common use of babassu; gender, race, and identity; working conditions and health of the breakers and speech upon their reality. It was identified that the theme is constantly investigated in postgraduate, especially in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil, by different Fields of scientific studies, it was also identified that the breakers are portrayed in these productions as a social group of struggle and resistance. In conclusion, the scientific productions related to babassu coconut breakers in CTD/CAPES cover several aspects of this traditional population, and it is very important to make traditional people and communities visible in the Brazilian academy, especially in Information Science area.

Numerous changes have occurred in the publishing process in the Brazilian publishing market. The challenges have grown rapidly with the advent and development of new technologies permeating the guidelines of publishers of all kinds. This work presents the problem of identification of the technological processes used by the Brazilian university publishing houses in the publishing of e-books and for this it sought to study these processes, identifying and characterizing the editorial policies adopted by the Brazilian university publishing houses, as well as analyzing the e-bookpublishing supports and the methodologies used for editorial production of e-books by the researched publishing houses, to trace the panorama of e-book publishing in the context of the Brazilian university publishing houses. The research is of an observational nature, making use of bibliographic and documental research, using the research universe of 69 university publishing houses in Brazil. The expected result is that this work presents an evaluative panorama of identification of the technological processes used by the Brazilian university publishing houses, the way in which they develop, so that a model of editorial policy of e-books can be outlined to dynamize and facilitate the production of digital publications in the academic environment.

The patient's medical record is a master document for activities and professionals in the context of health institutions. In this way, it works as a database for research and teaching, as long as the ethical and legal aspects of access are respected, in addition, the data that make up the medical record feeds national health systems, producing indicators that support the creation and implementation of public policies for the health area. Thus, it is required that the filling out of the information that constitutes the Patient Record is carried out in a clear, correct and complete manner. This study aims to analyze whether the information recorded in the Electronic Patient Record meets the need for information from professionals who use it in the Child and Adolescent Health Care Unit of the Professor Alberto Antunes University Hospital. To achieve the proposed objective, the information required to fill in the medical record will be identified; evidenced from the perspective of the professionals their difficulties and perceptions regarding the filling or search for information in the document; evaluated the process of filling in the information contained in the medical record and presented the functionalities of the Medical Record Management System. The methodological approach will be of a qualitative nature, the data collection instrument applied to the professionals who use the Electronic Patient Record in the Hospital Unit will be a questionnaire with open and closed questions, the data treatment will be carried out through the analysis of the results presented in the responses to the questionnaires applied. It is expected that this study will contribute to a better attendance on the professionals' information needs, corroborating with efficiency and effectiveness of the work process in the unit.

Information occupies an important place in the most diverse social segments and this is clear in public and
private organizations. In the context of health, public organizations have developed, seeking ways to innovate
and improve their services to meet the aspirations of contemporary society. Among information and
communication technologies, health information systems emerge as essential tools to help organizations and
health professionals to effectively and intelligently manage the large amounts of information that are
generated every day. There is a pressing need to make employees aware of the importance of information
management in the organizational environment, in order to promote and improve the use of information in
the actions of the Unified Health System (SUS). In this scenario, the research sought to study the process of
registration, integration and retrieval of information in e-SUS AB and SISAB. To this end, it was necessary to
describe the process of collecting and recording the information that feeds SISAB through e-SUS AB; As well as
verifying, from the perspective of managers and users, the main problems encountered in the registration and
retrieval of information in e-SUS AB; In addition, to identify the factors that interfere in the full integration of
e-SUS-AB and SISAB; In order to contribute to a better understanding of the process of collecting, storing,
retrieving and using information in the health area. As for the methodological procedures, a qualitative
research was carried out, with a descriptive and exploratory approach, consisting of a case study, with the
application of 172 questionnaires with professionals who are part of the family health strategy teams and a 

semi-structured interview with the manager of the health department of the municipality of São Luís do
Quitunde, Alagoas. The results point to a certain fragility in the training process of the teams; professionals,
difficulties in filling out the printed forms, as well as in the use of the electronic system, significant lack of
knowledge of the information storage processes, difficulties in unifying the patient records in the system, high
duplicity rate of patient records, system instabilities and the difficulties and improvements provided by e-SUS
AB, from a management perspective. It was possible to conclude that there is a need to carry out new training
with professionals who work directly with the e-SUS AB strategy, as well as to sensitize professionals and
management about the importance of the quality of health information, to promote improvements in the
registration process. and retrieval of information, thus providing the best decision-making by the arts of
management, as well as subsidizing the elaboration of public health policies for the municipality.

Introduction: The electronic auction is a type of bidding for the acquisition and contracting of common services and its use by public bodies, including Federal Universities, is mandatory. The electronic trading process is formed by information that has strategic value used for organizational learning and better decision making. This research aims to analyze how information management is characterized in electronic trading in a Federal Teaching Institution. Methods: The study will be carried out at the Federal University of Alagoas, the largest public education institution in the State of Alagoas. The research is characterized by being descriptive with a qualitative approach, thirteen civil servants who work in electronic trading were interviewed, using a semi-structured questionnaire as a data collection instrument. The questionnaires were constructed using the information management model of Choo (2003). Content analysis was performed as a data investigation method. Results: The main information needs were identified as: description of the material or services, price quotation and purpose of the acquisition. Personal sources are the most used by servers in resolving doubts in the process. There is no easy access to information from other sectors and information products and services are outdated and not very detailed for some users. Final considerations: The research is relevant because it analyzed the information management in the institution, which can bring improvements in the use of information, in the elaboration of information products and services from the informational needs of purchase requesters.

Open peer review is one of the practices of scientific publishing in the context of open science. It comprises peer review with some level of openness, from revealing the identities of the actors involved in the evaluation process of manuscripts received by scientific journals to publishing the reviewers' opinions together with the articles, or even allowing the contribution of any member of society, specialist or layman. However, the process of opening the evaluation, as well as all aspects of scientific communication, is inserted in a context of conflicts and disputes between the public and private interests of scientific knowledge, making necessary studies that seek to outline an overview of peer review. open considering the global and regional implications. Thus, this research aims to understand the development of Ibero-American knowledge on open peer review, through the analysis of its scientific production. To this end, a bibliographic and descriptive research was developed, with a sample of 20 editorials and 23 articles on open peer review, published between 2002 and 2021, retrieved from databases with wide coverage in the region. The documents were analyzed in the light of domain analysis from the bibliometric, epistemological/critical and terminological dimensions of the documents. Brazil and Information Science stand out as a country and as an area of knowledge, respectively, as the center of the debate on open evaluation in Ibero-America. The domain presents definitions about open assessment in an imprecise and inconsistent way, in addition to using foreign sources as a theoretical basis, even though there are sources on the subject in the region. The terminological analysis demonstrates wide use of the term “open peer review” by the domain, which demonstrates a distance from the Brazilian Thesaurus of Information Science. In addition, the terms used for the advantages and disadvantages of open review reveal a conservative and utilitarian discourse by the Ibero-American scientific community regarding the opening of peer review.

In the 21st century, science reaches the peak of its influence and predominance, manifesting itself in a society articulated by two networks that present an evident relationship of interdependence, information and communication. On the other hand, even with the massive production of qualified information and technical search devices, the knowledge framework is still mostly present among peers and is not disseminated to the population. It is necessary for the population to become aware of what is being produced in scientific institutions, and, therefore, the dissemination process appears, which becomes quite relevant. In a conflicting scenario formed by scientists manufactured in social networks, mediators limited in technical basis, and a science exhausted by fighting clashes either in the laboratories or in the projection of light to society, the path that has been presented to channel energetic efforts in this challenge is that of mediation of scientific information. This research aims to analyze scientific dissemination as a process of mediation of information in ST&I, within the scope of stricto sensu graduate programs in the State of Alagoas. To this end, it aimed to identify the actors involved in this process; verify the mediation policies undertaken with the graduate programs; characterize the artifacts used in the dissemination of information; and examine the dissemination actions developed. The research universe comprised professors from postgraduate programs in the state of Alagoas and the sample was formed by coordinators and vice-coordinators of these programs. Data collection was carried out through the application of questionnaires. The data were organized using graphics, images and tables, which show the process of mediation of information in ST&I through scientific dissemination.The analysis of the results encompassed the diagnosis and configuration of this scenario based on the construction of data provided by the professors who make up the framework of the programs, which is necessary to give impetus to Brazilian science, since it is not free from attacks, as well as demand for actions to clarify society with reliable information. It is considered that there are gaps in the dissemination and inclusion of citizens in the domain of technical-scientific discourses, and there is a need to insert them in the civil context, insofar as, if previously and correctly shared, they can avoid a series of transgressions of meaning, disinformation and denialist behavior, among other anti-ST&I aspects.

Institutional Repositories are an important strategy of the Open Access Movement to democratize unrestricted and free of charge access to scientific productions, especially those financed with public resources. As a scientific and socioeconomic proposal, they can maximize the visibility of authors, scientific results and the institution that maintains them, adding value through indicators that point to the quality and performance of the academic-scientific framework, in addition to benefiting a considerable portion of researchers in the field. generation of new scientific findings. Thus, the general objective of this research was to compare the essential requirements of Information and Communication Management implemented by the Repositories of the Federal University of Alagoas and the Federal University of Ceará that contribute to enhance the visibility and quantity of deposits of scientific and academic productions. Research of a basic nature, mixed approach and, with regard to the achievement of objectives, exploratory and descriptive. Data collection took place from the exploration of repositories, bibliographic surveys, documental research and also through the application of three questionnaires, one for each group participating in this study: directors of Central Libraries, coordinators of Institutional Repositories and coordinators of Technology Information on Libraries that support the repository. Using the comparative method, quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Student's t test, while qualitative data were analyzed using the content analysis technique and the attribute constellation method. The results revealed eight essential requirements of Scientific Information Management, the management structure processes, digital preservation, performance evaluation, identification of needs, collection, organization, retrieval and dissemination of information and four of Communication Management, institutional, marketing, internal and administrative that make up the Integrated Organizational Communication mix and are operationalized in Integrated Digital Communication from the perspective of Digital Information and Communication Technologies. From the interrelationship between these requirements, it was possible to conclude that there is asymmetry between the repositories of the two institutions, indicating that, although the Institutional Repository of the Federal University of Ceará appears as the first place among the repositories, the Higher Education Institutions of the Northeast region do Brasil, indicated in the Ranking Web of Repositories, both need to advance to enhance their visibility indexes and the increase of their populations. Finally, it was found that the efficient application of the essential requirements of Scientific Information Management and Communication Management contribute, in fact, for Institutional Repositories to achieve an effective and strategic performance in scientific and social environments, a reality that will stimulate interest of stakeholders with its population and will positively impact institutional scientific visibility and memory. as well as their credibility as instruments for the dissemination of scientific information.

Active transparency requires public bodies and entities to disclose information of general or collective interest without being provoked. The effectiveness of this process is based on the adequacy of the information services provided to the current normative instruments and to some specific quality evaluation parameters. This research analyzed the active transparency of information mediated by electronic social networks in the context of the Brazilian State Public Ministries (SPM). Operationally, for the fulfillment of specific objectives, the main electronic social networks used by SPM in providing information were identified; parameters for assessing the transparency of information mediated by these networks were raised; Based on these parameters, the conformity of the information services mediated by the selected social networks to the desirable criteria of transparency was evaluated; and a table of references for information services mediated by electronic social networks was indicated based on the definition of specific parameters within these institutions. The research was characterized, in terms of objectives, approach and data collection procedures, respectively, as descriptive, quantitative and qualitative and documentary. The research universe comprised Brazilian SPM. The intentional sample, in turn, included five ministerial units distributed in the five Brazilian regions. To this end, direct documentation was used, more precisely the search for documents and information made available on the main electronic social networks, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, of the selected institutions, during the months of September, October and November 2020. The documentary survey was carried out with support in a script for the collection, classification and systematization of directly observable data. As a result, it was possible to organize and prepare them for subsequent collation with the previously defined evaluation parameters based on internal regulations and specific legislation. In the systematization of the data, tables were produced to view the analyzed items and reports with discussions about active transparency mediated by electronic social networks in each of the ministerial units. The analysis and discussions highlighted the current situation of transparency mediated by electronic social networks in SPM. The research confirmed the understanding that social networks make up this framework of infocommunication tools used in the transparency process, as they have the necessary characteristics for this purpose, and revealed that, in isolation, they would not reach the level of legal, normative and socially required complexity information services linked to administrative transparency. With that, the understanding of the use of electronic social networks was obtained as an integrative tool in the framework of active information transparency in ministerial units, in order to contribute to the panorama of research in the information and institutional field.

This work was based on the analysis of the management of Alagoas Ladislau Netto (1870-1893) at the National Museum, at the time called the Imperial Museum. In this sense, the theme concerns the mediation of management, information and knowledge at its intersections with the museum space, as well as how it sought to dialogue with Information Science, Cultural History and Museology, in order to situate the botanist Ladislau Netto at the center of his contributions to the institutional organization, a consequence of administrative reforms arising from the regulations of 1876, 1888 and 1892. This culminated in the creation of the scientific journal Archives, in the implementation of competitions and public teaching courses, in the within the scope of the National Museum, as well as sponsoring scientific expeditions in Brazil, with repercussions on the Brazilian Anthropological Exhibition of 1882 and on the Universal and International Exhibition of Paris in 1889. In this way, this work treats the National Museum as an institution focused on production of information and knowledge, by establishing innovative processes, during the last quarter of the II Brazilian Empire, which configured those to the country's scientific-technological, political, social and cultural development. Finally, it seeks to establish a connection between the National Museum and the State of Alagoas, as the place of origin of Ladislau Netto, both bearers of information about this trajectory.

Sexuality is approached by medicine, anthropology, biology, history and psychology, each area of knowledge discussing it according to its peculiarity. Thus, it is necessary to reflect on the history of human sexuality, following the evolution of society over historical periods, as well as science has been problematizing this knowledge, especially Information Science, as it is considered an interdisciplinary science. Public health policies have gained ground since 1988 with the Brazilian Constitution, when its constitutional text defines the principles for implementation and implementation of care with regard to the health of the Brazilian people. The comprehensive health policy for lesbians, gays, transvestites and transsexuals emerged in the face of social movements that discussed the need for humanized care to people who were inserted in this context, until the ministerial decree 2,836 of December 1 2011, presents the guidelines regarding service to the health services of this population. In this sense, this research aimed to analyze the scientific literature in the field of Information Science published in Brazilian journals A1, A2, B1 and B2, from 2010 to 2020 and in the Annals of the National Meeting of Research in Information Science - ENANCIB about health LGBTQIA+ and its relationship with the National Comprehensive Health Policy aimed at this population.This is a descriptive research with a qualitative and exploratory approach, whose analysis methodology was based on an integrative review. For selection of articles, the expressions were used: sexual diversity, sexual orientation; gender orientation, sexual orientation, LGBT, LGBTQIA+, GLS, gay, lesbian, transvestite, transsexual and LGBT health. The results identified that only one journal had a higher incidence of discussion on the topic, which was the Electronic Journal of Communication Information & Innovation in Health – RECIIS (QUALIS B1) of the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation, with an article published in 2013, three articles published in 2019 and only one in 2020. In ENANCIB, the LGBTQIA+ theme appears in some work groups, with greater incidence in Work Group 11 – Information & Health, presenting three articles (2015, 2016 and 2019). The discussions of the authors of the works, both in the selected journal and in the ENANCIB articles, show the importance of addressing the needs of these groups, inclusive treatment in the health area and in specific research on the subject. We consider that the scientific production on the subject in the area of Information Science is incipient, also portraying little research, but it is relevant, because in this area that has as its object of study information, it is necessary to contemplate the access of these users in the direction of correct information about your health and other needs on the subject.

The study addresses the insertion of Clinical Librarianship in School and University Hospitals in the State of Alagoas, from the perspective of 02 public and private hospital institutions. The objective is to investigate the knowledge of professionals working in School and University Hospitals in the state of Alagoas about the possibility of inserting Clinical Librarianship, and to present the importance of the role of the clinical librarian to support the work of health teams. The research was exploratory with a qualitative approach, comprising the multidisciplinary teams in health: doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, nutritionists, among others, residents, and interns of health courses, who work in the two hospitals. The application of the questionnaire followed the criteria of a simple random sample, from these groups linked in the following sectors: Internal Medicine; General ICU; Maternity/Obstetric Clinic; Pediatrics; Oncology; infectiology and elective consultations. The sample was defined with 50 employees per hospital. However, HOSPITAL 01 returned 34 responses, HOSPITAL 02 returned 45 responses. The results show that, even little known, the work of clinical librarianship is viewed favorably by research participants. However, the conditions for the implementation of clinical librarianship in the surveyed places are still far from ideal.
