RESUMO

This dissertation deals with the importance of the university library, its purpose in institutions of higher education and the need for guidelines for adequate evaluation aimed at improving teaching conditions. An assessment was made of 48 undergraduate courses, with a view to offer guidelines and propose criteria for library evaluation. The methodological approach included an analysis of the standards of quality concerning the university library, as well as investigations directed towards the aspects of quality of these standards. It was observed that many models are adapted and do not represent a systematic investigation of the standards of quality in this area. A reference model is proposed to meet the need for more consistent guidelines to direct the undertaking of such evaluation processes. It is concluded that the establishment and organization of a standard of quality for the library sector is fundamental for evaluation and attainment of standards of excellence.
