Objective: Biobibliographic information sources, socially produced artifacts, enable the gathering of information about subjects who compete in the same field. The objective is to develop the conceptual problematization of biobibliographic discourse notion, based on the reflection derived from the theoretical-methodological experience in Library and Information Science (LIS), crossing a path that goes from biographical dictionaries to web curricula.
Method: As a philosophical-theoretical reflection, the research starts from Michel Foucault's "order of discourse" to discuss the conceptual potentiality of the idea of biobibliographic discourse in the scientific field, debating its construction as an analytical-discursive category for the informational field and its applicability critical in the plane of a philosophy of the document, recognized in works like Bernd Frohmann and Michael Buckland. In the empirical research, is given by biobibliographic information sources that refer to subjects linked to the scientific field.
Results: From the reencounter with Pindar's metaphor, which represents man as his shadow, the study reaches the biographic metadocumental objectification of being, identified, described, classified and indexed through its information arranged bibliographically from the invention of Modernity. The subjects and their material records in space-time challenge the substantialist informational discourse, being documented by the ways of fixing and conformation of biobibliographic information sources produced in consonance with a second, more comprehensive discourse that will produce the reflection of the subject.
Conclusions: Biobibliographies, recognized as discoursive formations, when used as a census form, orderly establish what the subject should be or become. The order of the biobibliographic discourse defines what he must dream about, a rite of conformation of the subject in the scientific field. It is created with this type of relationship a form of subjection to these sources of information.
