The methodology used was exploratory research, descriptive, with a qualitative approach and ethnographic procedures, using a questionnaire as a tool for data collection. The results indicate that the students identify advantages and disadvantages in remote teaching, and that there are difficulties depending on the reality of each one. Another result observed is that even though they are in their first semester, the students identify the relationship of the Librarian's role in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is conclude that despite the challenges imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the difficulties that remote teaching brings to students, the subject Information Technology I, although inserted in the first semester of the course, provides debates and critical thinking, about how the perception we have of things can be influenced by the information that circulates in society. The students, although beginning the Librarianship course, understand the importance of the Librarian's role within society, especially in information management, and in combating the dissemination of fake news.
