Objective: The study demonstrates how libraries can be essential in raising awareness, understanding, and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outlined in the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations. It specifically focuses on the role of federal university libraries in the Brazilian Amazon in contributing to SDG 4 (quality education) through practices aligned with their institutional goals and within the framework of professional training systems and scientific production.
Methods: The study involves identifying and analyzing the actions undertaken by federal university libraries in the Brazilian Amazon that contribute to achieving the SDGs.
Results: The study highlights how libraries democratize public access to information, foster literacy and information competence, promote conscious citizenship, and contribute to transforming reality and enhancing living conditions. It also shows that by participating in scientific communication management, libraries support research, technology development, and innovations that benefit social development and promote inclusive, equitable, and quality education.
Conclusions: Libraries play a crucial role in achieving the SDGs by supporting research, fostering literacy and information competence, and promoting quality education, which in turn contributes to social development and improved living conditions for communities.
