More sources of specialized africanity information subsidies for new and radical epistemologies

Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

ABSTRACT

Introduction:

Specialized information sources are artifacts constructed by human beings that organize a series of informational elements about a particular cutout/specialty of everyday existence. These artifacts serve to solve a specific informational demand and, not necessarily, can point out new paths as a result of the act of enforcing these mechanisms.

Objective:

To present a new set of specialized information sources on Africanities, aiming to contribute to increasing knowledge about the existence of these sources by gathering essential information about each one of them, through librarianship parameters.

Method:

The methodological procedures adopted were: a) contact with researchers in the field of Africanities; b) identification of theoretical texts to delimit the concept of Africanities; c) verification of availability of access to sources; d) collection of information to describe the selected information sources; e) grouping, when possible, of sources by subject area; and f) consolidation of results in the form of a source guide.

Results:

23 sources of information were identified, gathered and described, distributed into five categories.

Conclusion:

It is believed that the list of informational artifacts presented works as a strategic guide to support the strengthening of new and radical epistemologies, based on ethical and welcoming precepts of knowledge erected primarily in counter-hegemonic spaces.
