“…The turning point would come from the unexpected global social isolation, which produced unprecedented conditions in formal education at all levels. Given the necessary measures of social distancing and staying at home, the additional challenge was to take the next step and become online embedded librarians, with the responsibility ‘to provide distance learners equivalent access to the myriad of campus-based resources that residential students receive’ (Lysiak et al, 2018: 15).…”

The technological scenarios that have arisen in Latin American universities have been substantially changing in recent months as a result of the international health emergency caused by COVID-19. The lockdown policy revealed the need to develop digital and informational skills to adapt to the environment and the demands of distance learning required for integral online education. In order to observe and systematize the transformation of the technological environment in academic libraries during these months, the recent situation was identified based on data analysis obtained from a questionnaire applied in Latin American countries. The results reported significant changes in the use of digital applications, services, user assistance and librarian training during the pandemic, as well as the libraries’ mid-term commitments.

El objetivo de la investigación consiste en identificar requerimientos de formación informacional para el uso adecuado de recursos y servicios de bibliotecas digitales universitarias. Se aporta una visión sobre las prácticas y el nivel de competencia informacional de los estudiantes según el área de conocimiento. Para el estudio exploratorio utilizamos un análisis estadístico descriptivo e inferencial de los datos extraídos con un instrumento ad hoc aplicado a una muestra de 746 estudiantes universitarios de seis países hispanos. Los resultados indican un uso limitado de las bibliotecas digitales universitarias por parte de los jóvenes en general. Además, se observa insatisfacción con algunos de los servicios que ofrecen y un bajo nivel de competencia informacional para realizar búsquedas, evaluación y gestión adecuada de la información digital. Se concluye que, aun cuando los jóvenes expresan poseer habilidades para adquirir recursos digitales, el estudio evidencia la necesidad de que profesores y bibliotecarios diseñen estrategias que refuercen la alfabetización informacional de los estudiantes en sus cuatro dimensiones: recursos bibliotecarios, plagio/citación de fuentes, recuperación de información y evaluación de la información.
