| Abstract | |
In considering the environment of a public library as a living organism, constantly changing, which changes and turns towards the development of society, hybrid spaces are considered, where traditional and digital technologies are complementary. In this context, the application of information management strategies in hybrid library provides to its organizational structures the development of public policies favorable to the development of communities, in that it contributes to the smooth functioning of the institution. The problem of this research was linked to the potential that the hybrid libraries provide to society. From this perception, a link between hybrid environments, informational management and development process of communities was established through public libraries. The objective was to verify how the hybrid libraries, through their public policies, technologies and organizational structures can offer development strategies of communities in which are inserted. The research was characterized by a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory nature, and the Multiple Case Study method was used to compare the contexts of the hybrid libraries in the United Kingdom and Brazil. Content Analysis was a strategic tool used to establish the basic categories for data exploration, through a literature review in the Information Science literature about the similarities and differences between the concept of "hybridity" and the structural environment of the public library. Some similarities between the UK and Brazilian libraries are closely linked to the proposition that the role of these libraries is to move actions to create reading and writing opportunities for all groups of their user population. However, the great difference is the fact that the first have a strong theoretical basis in the literature for the development of their practices, which reflects in the multiple actions that concretize the sense of hybridity in these institutions. Therefore, it is believed that the application of the management of hybrid information in cultural equipments is essential for the promotion of access and service to the general needs of the target audience. It is through the hybridity of information, tools, services and processes that the communities are developed. Thus, the concept of hybrid libraries must be one of the potential activities of public libraries in the development of their communities. (AU) | |
