Sobre el papel del bibliotecólogo

Sin duda el lenguaje fue el primero y más importante instrumento, utilizado en sus inicios, por el hombre para transmitir los conocimientos e información adquirida.Mediante este medio y la memoria, se conservaron y transmitieron tradiciones, rituales, leyendas, plegarias y toda clase de conocimientos de generación en generación. Por ejemplo, en la antigüedad los ancianos de Israel usaban la "mnemotecnia" para transmitir el patrimonio religioso y cultural de su pueblo. Estos podían memorizar el Talmud y la Biblia sin problema y transmitirlos a sus descendientes y discípulos.Con el surgimiento de la escritura, en la noche de los tiempos, el hombre se da cuenta de que sus pensamientos y conocimientos es posible estamparlos por medio de símbolos en rocas, corteza vegetal y cualquier otro material a su alcance, logrando mayor permanencia y tangibilidad. Esto provocó la producción y acumulación de tablillas, papiros y otros materiales escritos, que debían ser custodiados y conservados por personas, que en las bibliotecas más antiguas correspondió a los sacerdotes (pues muchas estaban ubicadas en los templos por considerarse obras sagradas) o al cuidado de sabios y letrados como en la antigua Alejandría.
