DEVELOPMENT OF THE INFORMATIONAL COLLECTION OF IFBA IN THE VIEW OF THE RESPONSIBLE FOR LIBRARIES^*

ABSTRACT

In order to investigate the perception of those responsible for the libraries of the campuses of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Bahia (IFBA) regarding the procedures for training and development of informational material’s collection authority and the comparison between this perception and the precepts of it’s field’s literature, a survey of the population of representatives of libraries of the institution was carried out, methodologically characterized as exploratory in relation to the objectives, quantitative in relation to the problem approach. Initially, it is conjectured that, from the point of view of the representatives of these libraries, the theoretical basis of the topic was used sparingly and not agreed to the construction of collaborative informational collection of the units, despite the multicampi structure of IFBA. The results, obtained from the related data analysis through the proposed Macnaughton and Stochastic Oscillator of Wilder Jr., pointed to some moderate employment for some variables, a robust employment for others and, for the rest, the employability of the theoretical and conceptual teaching about the management of how the information collection is fragile.
