- Since the identification of a change in the acting in Institute of Information and Science and Technology (IBICT), given the broadening of interaction means with the users, this study aims towards understanding the socio-informational context in changes bearing in sight the theoretical framework of information actions in the ambit of “intermediary information institutions.” The theoretical trajectory suggested that, in the social plan, it would be possible to comprehend the current dynamics around information actions, especially from the technological modifications provided with new hardware, software and, above all, the World Wide Web, which influences the manner and behavior of the processes of search, retrieval, access and use of information by the user. Highlighting the user in this new scenario, this concept was analyzed as a means or a tool to learn two theoretical-informational models. The “systemic model” is characterized in function of the emphasis directed towards the professional and information system. In this model, the flow of information presents a foreseeable chain direction counting on the pretense of knowledge of the target public and of how the system works. In this sense, the “emerging model” spots problems in the previous model as it considers interactive possibilities, interconnectivities and hypertexts provided by the WWW. Given this panorama, it was possible to outline the following assumption: the contemporary socio-informational context and the theoretical construction of the “emerging socio-technical informational model” have been influencing information actions in “information institutions and intermediary systems” in S&T. Under this perspective, the trajectory of the research went through three moments. In the opening moment, a theoretical framework was spotted based on the categories “conceptual focus attributed to the user and to the information” and “nature and focus of the researches”, which helped in the process of visualization of certain analytical aspects aligned with “systemic” or “emerging” models. The identified theoretical framework brought systematizations around the phenomena of search, use, behavior, practice and action of information. In the moment of outlining, the action of information approach was put in context, bringing nearer the concept of the meaning of validation of information, especially to point out research possibilities regarding the use of information. In the last moment, called calculus, the results obtained were articulated so as to allow an interpretation guided by the concept of action of information in S&T. For such, the Brazilian scenario of Information in S&T was put in context oriented by the actions developed in IBICT. This institution was taken as a reference for being responsible for a representational fragment of actions of information in S&T in the country in the ambit of intermediary institutions and systems of information. IBICT operates meta-information aiming towards the access, retrieval and use of information, creating and providing the subsidies for the creation of meta-informational maps, targeting the monitoring and control of information in S&T, as well as performing actions considering criteria of excellence in information and S&T. From the theoretical path and the analysis of the actions from IBICT, the complexity and interdependency of different instances and actions in the ambit of institutions and intermediary systems of information in S&T were identified and criticized, under the orientation from criteria of excellence particular from the phenomena related with information in S&T and, also, under the theoretical influence of the “emerging socio-technical informational model.”
