摘要

The study is based on the web 2.0 with features geared to collective intelligence, focusing on the Blog, because it is one of the tools of social networking. Its main objective is to investigate the relationship of the blog with the university digital world. The study presents, contextualizes and discusses the usability of blogs among Librarianship students from the Campus of UFC Cariri, doing a survey of their contributors profile, the lifetime of the blog, its weekly visits, number of participating members, amounts of comments and how frequently they are updated. Through identification of bloggers and subsequent analysis of the content, we structured the results. The study concludes that there is an evolution in the study options of the Librarianship students, where the blog is a relevant resource to expand knowledge; it is a collaboration beyond the University walls which corroborates with the reading encouragement. The contribution of this article to Librarianship consists of showing how technology is a partner of the student and future information scientist, making the blog a librarianship practice through the various information posted that may be retrieved at any time.
