- This research retakes the discussion on scientific and technological information policies (STI) in Brazil, focusing the academic libraries subsystem of federal universities. The 1980s were chosen, as time description, for presenting the confluence of political and institutional factors favorable to the elaboration of the Academic Libraries National Plan (ALNP) into the context of public policies of Science and Technology (S&T). The theoretical-conceptual background presents several definitions of STI policies, its interlacements to other policies and the difficulty to define what policy is due to the complexity of the subject’s nature of this policy: “information”. This research brings a frame which emphasizes the historicity of STI and academic libraries in Brazil, reviewing the political moments which were decisive to continue or not the government plans and programs. It was used the General Theory of Systems, what makes the policy be understood through the systemic point of view, that is, as a group of coordinated parts, forming a complex or unitary whole with common goals. This study’s goal was to analyze the STI micro-policies influence to the macro-policies formulation and the conditions in which it happens. For that, the analysis was accomplished in two stages: the survey of documents of S&T and STI plans and programs; and interviews with professionals who participated in the discussion and elaboration of such documents in the 1980s. It is concluded that the social, political and institutional conditions which provided the current situation of STI and academic libraries are results of human action. And only through the action of competent professionals, who are committed to proportionate necessary changes, it will be possible to change this situation, making possible the favorable conditions to the elaboration of a STI public policy.
