Abstract

The papers on heritage information and documentation published in Scire, volume 11, number 1 (January-June 2006), are reviewed and contextualized. The articles consider the subject from multiple perspectives related to the theory and history of Library, Archival and Information Science, bibliographic studies, metadata applied to heritage preservation, knowledge organization in heritage information, and the divulgation of heritage using the Internet. In them, the importance of information and documentation as an activity of heritage transmission is vindicated, as one of the sciences of social memory. Not withstanding the signifi cance of the overwhelming technological challenges that Library and Information Science is facing, these studies focus in a special way on its humanistic and social aspects. Through them, Library and Information Science appears as an instrument to organize social memories, and, beyond that, as a tool to recover from the wide sea of human experience fragments of sense that can be relevant to enlighten the present
