Resumos

Pesquisas já realizadas indicam que os gerentes de unidades de informação exercem uma gama variada de atividades gerenciais além das tradicionalmente conhecidas e esboçadas em livros textos. Estas atividades possuem importância relativa para o sucesso do trabalho gerencial, são realizadas com freqüência diferenciadas e algumas são consideradas como sendo mais fáceis de serem executadas que outras. Esta pesquisa objetiva identificar qual a relação que existe entre as atividades consideradas mais relevantes e alguns fatores inerentes ao ambiente e estrutura da unidade de informação bem como a experiência administrativa já adquirida pelos gerentes destas unidades. Os dados são analisados tendo em vista sugestões para uma formação acadêmica mais adequada dos profissionais da informação.

The data is analyzed taking in consideration suggestions for an academic instruction adequate to information professionals.
