The connection between the pillar of Information Science and Management Science

The aim of the article is to discuss the interdisciplinary saga between Information Science and Management Science. The main scope of this plot focuses on information, whose attributes and properties are mingled with the two sciences. Its representativeness in Management is designed as an organizational resource, i.e. as the basis and reason for a new type of management - the management of information. This is an exploratory, descriptive and bibliographical study with a qualitative approach. The interdisciplinary nature of these two fields is broad and effective, since several concepts, principles and methodologies used in Management Science mingle with those in Information Science as the concepts from both sciences are used effectively. Therefore, information is a common element for building the interdisciplinary corpus, as well as being a product of management.
