“The library as a place of learning”: a possible dream or a utopia?
A review is a type of text that evaluates a work and, in an opinionated way, discusses it. In this case, we focus on the recent publication of the book “A biblioteca como lugar de aprendizagem”, by author Bernadete Campello. Composed of 29 chapters, the book presents, in an engaging and engaging manner, various themes from the world of the school library, such as: information skills; the research process; teacher-librarian collaboration; the construction of the librarian's educational role; reader development; school library networks and parameters; collection development and organization; technology in the school library, among others. The work is intended for a broad audience interested in the themes of Education and Library Science, not limited to the academic public. The importance of the library in the school is evident as a resource that needs attention from school management so that it can become an effective participant in the school's dynamics and the students' teaching-learning process.

User education and Peer Instruction: a library class model for understanding concepts in the school
The purpose of this study is to develop a library lesson model that uses an active learning methodology to help students understand concepts related to the environment/universe of the school library. We conducted a literature review and focused on the active Peer Instruction methodology proposed by Eric Mazur by doing exploratory research. We developed a library lesson model divided into four phases (Phase 1: Organizing groups of students; Phase 2: Assigning concepts to the groups; Phase 3: Applying the Peer Instruction steps to the groups; Phase 4: Result and consolidation of the action). Phase 3 consists of seven steps (Step 1: Question posed; Step 2: Students think about the question; Step 3: Students record individual answers; Step 4: Students convince their classmates of the concept; Step 5: Students record the group’s revised answer; Step 6: Feedback to the librarian; Step 7: Explanation of the correct answer by the librarian). The study concludes that active collaborative learning methodologies play an important role in schools presently. They enable the student to become the protagonist of their learning, while the librarian and teachers serve as mentors, guiding the reflections, clarifications, and advancements of the classes in the pedagogical activities. Peer Instruction as an active collaborative learning methodology has proven to be a viable tool for increasing user education in school libraries, having the librarian in partnership with the teaching staff. This strategy would provide students with an in-depth understanding of the library sphere and, consequently, have a positive impact on the user education process.

School libraries: Brazil and Portugal: guidelines and guidance for the formation/construction of school libraries
Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the parameters for the design and construction of school libraries. Furthermore, we seek to verify and analyze school libraries in Brazil and Portugal. Methodology: The methodology used in the present study has a quali-descriptive and exploratory nature, a literature review and also used international guidelines and standards/guidelines from organizations such as the American Association of School Librarians, International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions, International Association of School Librarianship, United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization and School Libraries Network. The reality of school libraries in Brazil includes their absence in most Brazilian schools. Data from the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira indicate that most Brazilian schools do not have libraries. Result: The results reveal that many Brazilian schools, in addition to not having school libraries, do not hire trained librarians, as the legislation requires that libraries of the most varied types and formats be managed, organized, information processing and research guidance to the reader be carried out by professionals with university training in Librarianship, and library attendants are required to have a library technician course. Conclusion: We came to the conclusion that there has been progress in relation to the number of school libraries, but it is still below the ideal basics, poor academic preparation and the absence of either the school library and/or the school librarian is still prevalent in a large part of the education system. basic education.

Adaptation of the Dewey Decimal Classification for the children’s and Young adult collection at the Municipal Library of Marília “João Mesquita Valença”: a successful experience
The Municipal Library of Marília "João Mesquita Valença" is an information center that offers updated materials in various languages and adaptations. With a diverse collection, the Library serves a wide range of users, including young readers who represent about 16% of the library's patrons. These young readers have access to a specific collection, organized by an exclusive classification that has been tested and validated. Classification plays a crucial role in the organization and accessibility of collections, establishing direct communication with users. However, traditional systems like the Dewey Decimal Classification can limit this communication, especially for children's and young adult collections. The notation 028.5, generally used for children's and young adult collections, groups various genres and themes without clear differentiation, making it difficult for young users to locate books independently. In light of this problem, it was observed that the classification used in Brazilian public libraries does not fully meet the needs of young users. Based on observations and reports from Municipal Library of Marília librarians, it was concluded that the rigid structure of the Dewey Decimal Classification needed adaptation. Thus, the proposed objective was to adapt the 800 class of the Dewey Decimal Classification to improve the organization and accessibility of children's and young adult collections, facilitating the independent location of books by young readers. This adaptation aimed to enhance the use of the collection, promoting a better reading and exploration experience in the library.

Proposal to create a specialized social network using of Giphy technology for disseminassion the library's services of UFSC
From a perspective that the Digital Humanities arise to account for a contemporary reality of technology present in traditional sources of information (Castro; Pimenta, 2018), this article points to a modern problem regarding the lack of knowledge of the information services offered by university libraries of the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC). Thus, increasing engagement with users through platforms that provide information services through social media. Digital technology mainly promotes content, such as social networks (Araújo, 2021). In this sense, libraries seek to modernize and increasingly use technology to their advantage through social media. This article addresses a proposal to the Communication and Marketing Commission of the University Library (BU), to design an academic social network whose objective is to expand the dissemination of BU/UFSC services. The creation of a specific specialized social network for the academic public is primarily justified by the fact that the main services offered by the Libraries are aimed at the students of the University. The article also proposes using giphy technology within the academic social network of BU/UFSC, publicizing the Library's services. The giphys will be created using GifMaker and Canva software based on existing materials and videos on BU's social media.

Performance of the school librarian in the pandemic, according to the vision of Abes
The pandemic caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) has had major impacts around the world, especially in the area of ​​education, where the school librarian is inserted, causing major changes in their performance, in terms of the services provided to the school community. Realizing this new scenario, the School Library Working Group belonging to the Association of Librarians of Espírito Santo (ABES), developed the present research aiming to identify if the educational institutions inserted the librarian in this new teaching format, as well as to present the conditions of work of the librarian in this period and what activities were developed by them, which are or are not part of their attributions. As for the methodology, it is a qualitative-quantitative approach, having as a data collection instrument the use of a questionnaire applied to librarians in the State of Espírito Santo. After collecting the data, it was possible to verify that most of the librarians participating in this research had already returned to work in person (since the vaccination process had already started). We identified that even though there were no face-to-face classes, most librarians tried to maintain interaction with their students in a virtual way and the main activities carried out during this moment signaled by the librarians were: reading club, virtual shelves, reading tips, videos of storytelling stories, quizzes and games. The results showed that during the pandemic, digital tools were part of the process of reinventing school libraries, but most librarians do not have basic resources such as computer and internet in their libraries and that many were unfortunately subjected to function deviation during this period.

Reading has been present in society since the beginning of civilization and with the emergence of technology it has made it possible to access that was not possible before. However, for the individual to know how to search, select and make efficient use of information, he needs skills that I acquired with literacy and literacy. From this premise, we seek to demonstrate the importance of literature in this process and how to properly use the school library with collaborative activities performed by the librarian and teachers aimed at the appropriation of this skill. As a research method, bibliographic research was used, involving a literature review with studies from 2015 to 2020 contained in the following databases: Reference Database of Journal Articles in Information Science (BRAPCI) and in the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD – IBICT). Using the following descriptors for the search: Literacy, Literacy, Literature, School Library, Collaborative work, using the Boolean operators AND and the quotation marks to create a well-defined search. As well as directive and normative documents of education. As a result, we base the definition of literacy and literacy and how the two go together, and the importance of the collaborative work of the librarian and teachers for the teaching-learning process.

Reading in elementary school from the perspective of Common National Curriculum Base and its relationship with the school library
Reading directly reflects on learning indices. The practice of reading requires understanding, in addition to promoting frequent contact with different textual genres and contact with other cultures, which develops attitudes of respect for diversity and empathy for what is different. BNCC considers reading as one of the four fundamental axes of language. In this sense, we study here the importance of school libraries in this context, and we exemplify with the current situation of the libraries of elementary schools in Marília, SP, as well as the importance of the library professional so that librarians, teachers and students can work together in order to promote a higher level of literacy, developing orality and greater writing ability.

Innovation trends in school libraries: emerging trends to reframe these spaces
The implementation of innovative practices in school spaces is a necessary movement to follow the needs of contemporary society, which, even with inequalities, is increasingly immersed in the universe of technologies. This project investigatesinnovation trends in school libraries, focusing on new media and collaborative creative spaces. It aimed to map which innovation practices have been implemented in Brazilian school libraries and how the concepts of makerspace, hackerspace and resource center have been incorporated by school institutions. The project is based on a systematic mapping of literature, including articles, publications in reports or expanded abstracts peer-reviewed, in addition to theses and dissertations, published between the years 2000 and 2020, in Portuguese. As a final result, a scope of 8 projects was obtained that met the inclusion criteria. The publications indicated the makerspace as a promising trend for innovation in school libraries and an important resource for the pedagogical process, as well as the Learning Resources Center that aims to compose the planning and objectives of the educational system. The projects show that for an effective incorporation of concepts, it is necessary to make the curriculum more flexible, a process of raising awareness among the school community and qualifying librarian professionals. It is concluded that this area is still underdeveloped in school spaces in Brazil, but that it is already showing effective processes in some institutions.

Collective identity of the information age librarian professional: a discussion permeated by technology
The article presents an approach to the relevance of professional ethics for the consolidation of a collective identity of Librarian today. A literature review was carried out based on bibliography. The aim was to point out what is the relevance of ethics as a precondition for strengthening the collective identity of Librarian and for the fulfillment of their social function in the realm of the information age. By means of moral values, theoretically based on ethics and also on the rules from the Code of Ethics of the Librarian Professional, the behavior of this grouping is regulated so that all their potentialities are turned to meeting the society information needs. Ethics incorporate the librarian commitment to their profession, to co-workers, to the technical handling of information and to the users, in other words, a commitment to society as a whole. Thus, the collective identity of the Librarian can be enhanced if there is professional ethics permeating their relationship, allowing political engagement through associations of category and providing, lastly, the fulfillment of the social function of the profession.

University libraries: use of strategies communications to combat disinformation in the context pandemic Covid-19
The advent of the "informational society" (CASTELLS, 1999) emerges dedicating space to information. Although so relevant to this society, the extensive volume of information disseminated through social media favors the dissemination of false information. Recently, the World Health Organization declared that the Covid-19* pandemic has generated an infodemic, a phenomenon that further aggravates the current public health crisis. In light of the above, this article aims to analyze how university libraries can contribute to controlling disinformation, through the use of communication strategies. For this purpose, as a methodological procedure a literature review was conducted relating the topics: informational society and its challenges as "post-truth" (DELFINO et al., 2019) and infodemic, misinformation and formation of public opinion, as well as a mapping in the websites and social media of some university libraries, in the period of paralysis of in-person activities. As a result, we verified that post-truth has become a consequence of society, said to be ‘informational’, but which does not know how to use information properly. Moreover, it was understood that misinformation is a strategy for manipulating public opinion since it interferes with the individuals' ability to interpret and evaluate information. It was found that the libraries studied have effectively used communication strategies such as the dissemination of informational content on social media, which assist users in the critical evaluation of the information received. It is concluded that university libraries, as mediators of the user's interaction and relationship processes with information, play an important role in combating disinformation.

The librarian on the agenda in the practice of storytelling: an educational activity encouraged in school libraries in Grande Vitória, Espírito Santo State, Brazil
The act of telling stories has accompanied humanity since the beginning and this trajectory imposes and has been structuring new actuation areas. Thus, the objective of the study is to analyze and understand the storytelling act in some school librarians who work in elementary school professional trajectory in Vitória, Espírito Santo State, Brazil (RMGV-ES) metropolitan area. The methodological articulation is based on the Life History method and, takes up the professional narratives and examines them in a socio-interactionist approach. The result is that storytelling is a manifestation that intertwines imagination and creation, often relying on a transformative subjectivity, keeps communicative and cultural memory alive and disseminated. In short, in the path of cultural action, the act of telling stories rebuilds and reframes the conjecture of reading practices and, in general, interviewees indicate that the graduation course does not prepare them for carrying out these activities. In this panel, professionals suggest that the act of storytelling should be included in the curriculum of library science courses. Thus, the school library has the task of being an orb of knowledge, cultural flexibility, citizenship exercise and locus creationis - for multiple exchanges and literary interventions. The conclusion states that the action of storytelling brings meaning and value to the teaching-learning process in education, especially for elementary school students. It is emphasized that the school library and the librarian, with storytelling, help the student educational and social development, stimulating the imagination world and the awakening of new readers.

Professional training of Librarianship for action in school libraries: brazilian federal universities
This is a study whose objective is to analyze the pedagogical projects of the Librarianship courses at Brazilian federal universities and answer the problem: how does the training of librarians in universities to work in school libraries? The justification for such inquiry is the growth in the demands of the labor market with the advent of Law n. 12.244 June 2010, which establishes the universalization of libraries in educational institutions and the maximum period of ten years for this law to be complied with. The methodology of this work consisted of an exploratory research, using the quantitative approach for its development, integrating basic phases of the research, such as: planning, theoretical review, data collection and analysis; and evaluation. The results obtained were compared with the theoretical basis, taking into account the concepts of School Library, Information Literacy, Information Competence and School Research. The evidence shows that the library courses in the analyzed institutions tend to basic education for the library in their traditional molds, but seek, even if timidly, to follow the changes that have occurred over the years, especially the performance in the school library.

The school library as a potentiating agent of the teaching-learning process
The school library is of paramount importance in the educational context, although it has not always been recognized as such throughout its history. Considering that it plays, today, a role that goes far beyond a space for reading promotion, this article aims to understand the importance of the school library as an instrument in the teaching-learning process, in order to identify the relevance of the coordination support pedagogical and teachers for this process, as well as employ facilitating activities that can collaborate to make this theory a possible reality. To this end, a qualitative research, bibliographic review and experience report was carried out in a private institution of basic education, belonging to an educational network, located in the north of the state of Paraná. The results showed that interdisciplinary work is essential for better service delivery to the school community, as well as the active and cooperative participation of the librarian, the coordination and the teaching staff, making them the main potentializing agents of the teaching-learning process, breaking paradigms and creating a different concept of school library, both for the student body and for the teacher.
