O fenômeno desinformação sob a perspectiva dos arquivistas brasileiros: o papel da competência em informação

Abstract

Considering the contemporary scenario, of technological revolution, where information, as well as its channels and forms of dissemination, are configured as fertile soil for the spread of disinformation, this research aims to understand the perception of archivists about the phenomenon of disinformation and the role of Information literacy in this interaction. For this, bibliographic research was used to systematize and better understand the topics covered, and a questionnaire was applied to collect evidence. From the analysis of the data, it was possible to weigh the perception of the archivists regarding the phenomenon of disinformation, in addition to identifying the effects that this phenomenon can cause in their performance. It was observed that archivists understand disinformation as much as they recognize that their performance can be affected by this phenomenon, as well as understand the importance of developing new skills to deal with the impacts of disinformation on their practices.
