Abstract(s)
A investigação científica assenta em conhecimento científico prévio, o que torna as
bibliotecas num pilar fundamental de acesso ao conhecimento e à sua criação. Este artigo procura
refletir sobre a relação entre a investigação científica em Portugal e as bibliotecas, que dão acesso a
uma parte nuclear dos recursos de informação, centrada em duas vertentes: (i) o posicionamento das
bibliotecas como suporte da investigação científica num ambiente de oferta generalizada de
informação disponível em linha e (ii) o modo como são percecionados pelos investigadores os serviços
oferecidos pelas bibliotecas de investigação e universitárias em Portugal. Este trabalho assenta numa
revisão da literatura seguindo a proposta cronológica de Manuel Heitor (2015) para a evolução da
ciência portuguesa. Os dados apresentam dois itinerários interpretativos que giram em torno dos
contributos dos profissionais de informação e da investigação universitária em Ciência da
Informação. Conclui-se que não existe ainda um estudo profundo dedicado ao apoio das bibliotecas
à investigação científica, havendo espaço em aberto para a prossecução de um trabalho desta
natureza.
Scientific research is based on prior scientific knowledge, which makes libraries a fundamental pillar of access to knowledge and its creation. This article seeks to reflect on the relationship between scientific research in Portugal and libraries, which gives access to a core part of information resources, centered on two aspects: (i) the positioning of libraries as a support for scientific research in an environment of generalized information available online and (ii) how the services offered by research and university libraries in Portugal are perceived by researchers. This work is based on a literature review following the chronological proposal of Manuel Heitor (2015) for the evolution of Portuguese science. The data present two interpretative itineraries that revolve around the contributions of information professionals and university research in Information Science. It is concluded that there is not yet an in-depth study devoted to the support of libraries to scientific research, and there is scope to pursue this kind of work.
