Book synopsis

The work and profile of the Information Professional is no longer limited to the world of libraries. Especially in countries with developing and peripheral economies that are seeking to reduce dependence on knowledge generated by rich countries, it is necessary to develop and foster new professional profiles with high expertise in knowledge generation and management in order to support such paradigm shift. Funding is not everything for a scientific paper, its formal structure and guidelines, as well as the skills to manage the many tools and formats of scientific communication have gained equal importance. The philosophy of this book is to create the basis for the acquisition and development of a scientific culture. All researchers who are engaged in scientific communication processes are required to know how they can continue to do so; often they require support to carry out their scientific communications. This book promotes the idea that an information professional is the right person to offer this kind of support. This book provides guidance in how to provide this kind of support and how to develop a scientific culture in their institutionsThis book identifies information competencies that an information manager for scientific communication must obtainIt redefines the profile of professional information graduates and identifies this new function as a job opportunity
