Abstract

In the librarians case specially, these points are discussed based on literature, inserting questions about what is competence and which ones are highlighted by authors when they list competences that professionals should have to be recognized as modern information professionals. Besides that, the task of elaborating curricula that fill every determined requirement is very complex. Add to that it is unavoidable to stress questions related to information and communication technologies whose importance in the librarians’ work is becoming greater and greater, and their use more intensive and determinant for those that wish to develop information products and services each time more suitable to their clients.
