Políticas de información, bibliotecas universitarias y desarrollo: reflexiones desde la cooperación universitaria

Abstract

Reflection on the interaction between national information policies and development cooperation projects in the field of academic and research libraries. The evolution of the information policy concept, its relation to development cooperation, and the central role that for nearly seventy years Unesco has played on those matters are analyzed. Finally, cooperation scenarios in which professionals of university and research libraries in developing countries could develop projects aligned with national information policies are examined.
