Leituras sobre usuário e uso de informação na Ciência da Informação

Considering aspects of international literature in the area of Information Science (IS) regarding need, search, behavior and use of information, this study aims to explore the historical path and interpretations of the concepts of user and use of information, under the support reference of the notions of information system and subject agency. For such, a corpus was formed with 15 literature reviews of the Annual Review of Information Science and Technology - ARIST - which brought a theoretical panorama on the concepts here studied. The analysis of these reviews was tooled with categorizations of the use of information proposed by Rachel Anne Fleming-May, making it possible to situate two initial phases identified, particularized for orbiting a notion of information system, being the first phase characterized by a more static conception of system and the second by a more dynamic meaning. Finally, a third and last phase was found in reading ARIST, which was better visualized after the year 2000. In the first decade of the 21st century, studies started considering, complementarily to previous phases, the agency of subjects from the notions of interaction and context, in actions of use, production and appropriation of information and knowledge.

Criação, proteção e uso legal de informação em ambientes da World Wide Web

Um número cada vez maior de produtores de conteúdo informacional, embora de acordo com os padrões culturais prevalecentes nem sempre seja considerado qualitativamente favorável, evidencia uma nova configuração cultural exponencialmente representativa no fluxo da informação em que o indivíduo, que não há muito tempo era um mero consumidor de conteúdo intelectual, é agora também um participante ativo na criação desses conteúdos. Os indivíduos que lidam com essas novas formas de produzir, disseminar e usar conteúdos informacionais devem estar conscientes das diferenças que se impõem quando a informação é digital. Eles devem conhecer as implicações quanto ao fluxo da informação e seus aspectos simbólicos, bem como saber sob quais condições a lei de direitos autorais estabelece que essas práticas devam acontecer.

Informação orgânica como insumo estratégico para a tomada de decisão em ambientes competitivos: estudo nas empresas do setor varejista situadas na cidade de Marília/SP

The focus of this research is centered on organic information production, sharingand use on the enterprise decision making process. The information on the present economy becomes value source for organizations. The organic information is produced on the organization s internal environment been a product of the activities made by execution its functions. Knowing the elements that involve this process gives a great help to managers once the decision making process is permeated by conflicts and different perceptions. Therefore, the organic information can reduce these conflicts on organizational contexts, because it reduces the uncertainness, propitiates more security and more trustworthiness to the decision making process, besides it gives dynamism to people s time involved on the process. The investigated universe was composed by the companies affiliated to Construnova Net, from construction material segment, located at Marilia Region s cities, Sao Paulo State, because it is an important segment which influences the local and regional economy. The methodological proceedings used are based on the qualitative approach which method is related to descriptive and exploratory research. As data collecting instruments were elaborated a structured questionnaire with closed questions and an interview s syllabus which contents are related to the research s aims. As analysis proceedings for the collected data and also to consider the qualitative approach it was chosen the Contents Analysis method from Bardin and more specifically the Categorical Analysis . Consequently, we conclude that it is deficient in production of organic information, or to produce documents that prove and control the activities that are developed within the organization is not satisfactory. The decision usually is not subsidized by organic information. Accordingly the study points out the deficiency of the perception of the importance of the organic type information as an aid to decision making and al

Processos de gestão da informação: tratamento, recuperação e uso da informação no mercado de capitais

In the capital market the information are used as subsidies for the decision making of investors, among the main highlights are the economic, political, accounting and relating nature to the financial results of companies which have stocks traded at Stock Exchanges. In this perspective, it is essential that the agents involved especially brokerage companies establish management processes that contain a set of criteria for the organization and treatment of information collected in newspapers, news agencies and the companies that trade in stocks. Thus, it is essential to establish rigor in relation to recovery mechanisms of such information, which requires more than technology, because actions are necessary that will propitiate the informational content are made available with consistency, clarity and trustworthiness, so as that users can retrieve them in a timely manner. Furthermore, those processes should provide the efficient use of the information retrieved by users, so that they can use them aiming to subsidize the decisions of sale or purchase shares. Considering that the information systems are responsible for the information dissemination in the framework of capital market, it is necessary to present requisites that contemplate the set organization, treatment, retrieval and use of information. That way, we sought to evidence in this paper these issues, utilizing as a premise the elements proposed by Guimarães (2003) from the perspective of the information environment of a values brokerage companies reflecting through the model used, how these companies realize their work considering the dimensions of the documentary analysis, informational treatment, and the instruments for retrieval and use of information.

Web colaborativa: inovação na criação, proteção e uso legal de informação

In the contemporary world, the Internet enables the development of a Collaborative Web where the decentralization and sharing of information and knowledge generate new cultural configurations of increasing representation in informational flows. In this environment, collaboration and remix practices are covered by a legislation established for another context, and an imbalance is created between what is provided by the technology and what is established by Copyright. Therefore, it is necessary to address, under the perspective of the third time in Information Science, contemporary issues concerning creation, recreation, use, reuse, sharing and dissemination of intellectual content under the legislation which regulates them. This article seeks to highlight the dilemma that contemporaneity is experiencing and how important is for both society as a whole and specially the professional of Information Science to know the legal conditions for the processes of generating, processing, using, recovering and, especially, re-using information on the Web at a larger scale. The Creative Commons licenses are emerging alternatives that offer individuals options to become not only users but also holders and creators of intellectual content under legal conditions.

O uso da informação no âmbito acadêmico: o comportamento informacional de pós-graduandos da área de Educação

This study reports part of a broader research about information behavior of graduate students in Education. The research´s participants were nine masters and doctoral students from a graduate program in Education at a public university. The focus group technique was used to collect the data. The focus group sessions were observed and recorded. The recorded data were transcribed, categorized and then analyzed using the technique of content analysis. The main aspects achieved were: i) Identification’s forms of information resources for research; ii) Internet as source of information; iii) Academic Library’s services and resources use; iv) Training to use of electronic data base; v) Difficulties to perform the search; vi) Advisor’s influence on research development; and vii) Environmental factors that affect information seeking behavior. The main results reveal that the identification of information sources occurs, mainly, through references quoted on studies of the researched area; as well as the advisors’ influence in the information seeking behavior of the participants. The results, also, disclose some environmental aspects, as example, lack of time to search and discomfort caused by the libraries’ environment that influenced negatively the information behavior of the studied group.
