Entre a censura e a disseminação: uma análise crítica sobre a prática profissional bibliotecária fundada na emancipação de informação e dignidade humana

Abstract

The professional applicability of the librarian, in norm is based on the scientific freedom in its dissemination, thus, completing access to information for their users who seek in libraries certain knowledge, and especially, may find obstacles in some forms of obtaining information, due to professional practices of the librarian. In this sense, the objective is to discuss the reflexes of censorship in the professional practice of the librarian, presenting some conceptual frameworks, from the state of the art, through questioning and interpretative actions, knowledge variables on censorship practices and information dissemination in libraries. It is a theoretical and bibliographical research, since it seeks to discuss through indicative analysis the interpretative evidences, in the sense of finding clues in the process of information dissemination that compose the assumptions of censorship practice, from the explicit and implicit (veiled censorship) points of view. As a result, it is estimated that censorship lasts for time, in addition to camouflaging, thus appearing implicitly in places that should be reinforced against any traces that recall the censorial behavior. In the end, it is contextualized the librarian as an information professional, sworn in the freedom of scientific research and the dignity of the human person, has the responsibility and commitment to strive so that this oath is not only in theory but for the practice of our daily lives in libraries.
