%X In the librarianship literature, blended librarians are integral
professionals with the theoretical knowledge of Library and Information Science
and simultaneous competences allowing them to deal with printed and digital
information; they also have the knowledge on the use and management of
information and communication technologies (ICTs). Considering the
aforementioned, this paper debates: 1) the ideas of innovation and technological
innovation models; 2) the disruptive technological innovation and its
connection with the current library and information science scenario; and 3)
the blended librarian and its challenges in the information systematization for
access, retrieval and information services in a digital world context.
