Abstract

The need for access to scientific information, as an indispensable condition for the generation of new knowledge, places the information problem in a central role in the production and dissemination of science. In order to analyze one of the main actors involved in this process, an international literature review was carried out on the role of libraries in scientific research. In the relation between information and science, we question the place that libraries occupy. To this end, five dimensions converge to a theoretical definition of the problem of the role of libraries in scientific research. The state of the art on the relationship between libraries and research demonstrates the robustness and relevance of this line of research, which allows an approximation to the relational complexity present in "laboratory life" (Latour & Woolgar, 1997).
