Curso de normalização a distância: tecnologias web como suporte a competência informacional de usuários de biblioteca

Abstract

This experience report presents the implementation of the module Standardization of Academic Papers that composes the New Users Training Program (NUTP) created by the Federal University of Lavras Library (BU/UFLA) in a virtual mode. This service was created by a team of professionals in the area of Library Science and Computer Science. The course was made available at the University's Virtual Campus, which is the platform already used by students to study online subjects of the university undergraduate courses. Some of the results obtained were: improvement of the methodology to teach ABNT standards, flexible hours to study, and democratization of the training modules to the students who take distance undergraduate courses at the university. Thereby, it is concluded that distance education is adequate to develop activities on informational competency at university libraries, including standardization of academic papers.
