RESUMO

Among the several contemporary professional fields, which have been mostly affected by the technological improvements, globalization and social transformation one may highlight those wich emphasise creation, processing and dissemination of information. The library that witnesses the information being transformed into social phenomenon, besides its recently invested market value, is compelled to adjust its role and services; being required from librarians, attitudes, skills, qualifications in the professional practice. Considering the choice of being a librarian in the medical field, scenario which represents the context of this work, the goal is to identify through the speeches, motivations and opinions about the professional practice in this field. Trought taped and transcribed interviews, with twelve librarians in a medicine school, and considering the methodology of Collective Subject Speech, the answers which show the opinions about the subjects which are part of the research, are analysed. The speeches point out a lot of ways to adopt the profession as well as dealing with it, while being concerned to the satisfaction and commitment on the part of those librarians. The updating and specialization needs are identified, and the concern with the image required by the profession as well as the keeping of jobs by the librarians. The challenges, the difficulties and specifc facilities of this field, the medical literature, the users and the work environment, are taken on consideration. The specialization and professional development make it possible to broaden the roles and atributions of the librarians in multiprofessional groups in the medical field.
