The teaching condition of school librarian in basic education

Abstract

This article discusses the role of school librarian in the context of the debate on the work and teaching condition through a bibliographical qualitative research. Aims to analyze how the school librarian, seen as a teaching worker engaged in basic education, plays different educational activities that have an impact on the training process of students. The main theoretical foundation is the result of the research “Teaching Work in Basic Education in Brazil", performed by the Group of Studies on Educational Policy and Teaching Work at the Federal University of Minas Gerais. It is conclusively noted that the school librarians do not participate very much in the discussions related to pedagogical political project of the schools where they act, although they recognize their importance in the development and training process of their students, which requires a reframing of these professionals at school and theoretical perspectives that guide.
