Sumario:This Editorial is a review of the perspectives that attempt to describe the concepts produced in scientific and technological research in relation to “post-normal science”. These studies have had a great impact in recent years and their approach, in their most notable contributions, assume rethinking the discipline as a producer of knowledge. These transformations are associated with a closer approach of science towards the interests and preferences of its main social actors. Information science, challenged by post-normal science, in the sense that Silvio Funtowicz and Jerome Ravetz attributed to the latter term, faces situations in which the encounter with information, knowledge, and wisdom are provided in complex contexts, where the conceptual frameworks that structure the librarian’s perspective must co-evolve in order not to remain unchanged.
