Abstract

Throughout the last years, the increasing use of Technologies of Information and Communication (TICs) have stimulated a new gamma of informational necessities. The digital environments favor the transposition of the conventional limits of representation and dissemination of the registered knowledge, incorporating new elements to the processes of production, organization and recovery of information. Considering the ontologies as a new and riveting category of systems of representation of knowledge, we searched bases that allow to analyze the approaches of this new computational approach with the instruments and methods of Knowledge Organization, starting from presentation of the ontology OIR, designed for the representation and exchange of referential informations of academic papers, investigating in what scale the area of Information Science can contribute to the development of ontologies and analyzing the consequences of its use in digital libraries.
