Abstract
JARAMILLO, Orlanda; SALAZAR ALVAREZ, Marisol and MERCADO C., María José. Profile of the Library-Archivology professor: A look from the Colombian context. Inf. cult. soc. [online]. 2017, n.37, pp.27-40. ISSN 1514-8327.
This paper identifies from a mixed approach the main characteristics of the profile of the Library-Archivology professor in Colombia, characterization preceded by an extensive documentary search in the context of Ibero-America, which evidenced the absence of the subject in the research agendas. It also affirms that given the dynamics of each university and each professional's training program, it is not possible to talk about a unique professor's profile, since it depends on the type of institution, educational model, areas of performance and fundamentally, the criteria of affiliation, where although training, work experience, research and academic production are taken into account, it is not explicit the pedagogical competence, nor the contributions to the disciplinary development, which are essential in the profile of the university professor. For these reasons, it is advisable for library-archivology professor to carry out research, to contribute to academic visibility, and to the advancement and scientific position of the area, in order to generate value for the academic program and the institution and thus, increase the quality of the university to which they are affiliated.
