  • In September 2015, the United Nations Member States adopted a new global agenda for sustainable development - the 2030 Agenda, setting 17 Sustainable Development Objectives (SGDs) that all countries should implement by 2030. In this context, IFLA the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions, like other sectoral organizations, continuously sought a formulation of SGDs and associated targets that would reflect libraries’ contributions to sustainable development and keeps on striving for the reinforcement of the Information Documentation sector and the development of professional competences. This paper arose from the analysis and reflection around several research, dissemination and teaching experiences related to sustainability, within a research path focus on the evolution of the 2030 Agenda and its academic, professional and social relevance among Portuguese Information Documentation researchers and professionals. It aims to broaden possible strategies to be developed in educational and professional practices of Information Science in the areas of performance evaluation and management, seeking to contribute to the debate on the priority challenges, the diversity of experiences and the research relevance on the framework of realities and global references. The analysis of the evolution of the experiences carried out (considered as dynamics, that is, continuous processes that are object of diachronic study) allows us to examine their contribution and effects and proceed to their differentiation and quantification through internal (meta-) evaluation. Four dynamics of learning, involvement and development of competences around sustainability were identified: Dynamics 1 (2012-2015) is characterized by the development of learning experiences and awareness of sustainability in interdisciplinary workshops in the MSc in Information Science and Documentation of NOVA FCSH; Dynamics 2 (2016-2018) is characterized by the valorisation of management and evaluation of public libraries’ evidence and contributions to the 2030 Agenda and by the development of a Model for the Alignment and Evidence Gathering of Libraries’ Contribution to Sustainable Development; Dynamics 3 (2018-2019) is marked by the involvement and strategic learning activities of Information Documentation professionals; Dynamics 4 (2018-2019) is characterized by the importance at the academic level, evidenced by the curricular unit Evaluation of Performance and Sustainability of Information Services in the Master in Information Management and Curation, a partnership between NOVA FCSH and NOVA IMS. These dynamics indicate that the field of Information Science in Portugal has been consolidating the perspectives related to the linkage of performance evaluation with sustainability, constituting the Agenda 2030 a challenge and simultaneously an interdisciplinary opportunity for the convergence of metrics and the development of transversal competences.
