The technology question through the curriculum of the Library Degree at the National University of La Plata. Critical approaches from the documents and the perspectives of the actors

Abstract

This paper inquires how the technological question is approached in  the university professional training in librarianship, in an historical overview which covers 30 years. It is a case study of the librarianship degree in the Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educación de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata and the curricular transformations in the technological area are of key importance. The methodological approach is focused in the documental analysis of the curricula, the programs of some subjects and other significant materials. Also, some teachers responsible of the changes in the curriculum during the last 30 years were interviewed. From the analysis of both materials is possible to deduce coincident tendencies about the technology place in the professional training, as well as suggestions about possible modifications in the teaching of librarianship.
