Histórias em quadrinhos nas bibliotecas de São Carlos: uma análise comparativa
Abstract
From a comparative approach to the national scene, this study explores the insertion
and informational treatment of comic books in libraries in São Carlos. Applied
research with a qualitative approach and a descriptive objective. Includes a
Bibliographic Research on how comic books are organized in libraries and a Case
Study on four libraries with collections of comics in the city of São Carlos. It is found
that there is no direct relationship between the size of each library's comic collection
and the informational treatment employed. Although institutions that do not perform
the classification, cataloging and indexing of items prevailed, three of the four
libraries offer items for home loan based on a simplified control, contrary to the
national scenario that keeps the collection restricted to internal consultation. It
emphasizes the need to seek institutional support that comes through acquisition
funds, consistent policies and professionals who know the potential of the comic
books. It is highlighted that the initiative and personal dedication of enthusiasts
should not continue to be a condition for comics to occupy cultural spaces and the
promotion of knowledge.
