Library catalogs in any medium have always been the means par excellence of accessibility to the collection of said institutions and a possible way for the necessary control of authorities determined by the scientific-technical production of their authors, currently favored by the systems of search and retrieval of information provided by new technologies.

This paper reviews the study and use of the Wikipedia category system in the scientific research, adopting a systematic literature review approach, but considering the qualitative review of the content of a set of selected papers. Several types of work are identified, depending on the intrinsic study of the category system, or its use as a tool for the analysis of other documentary corpus other than Wikipedia. We conclude that the system of categories offers a valid classification scheme for different approaches and studies on the organization of knowledge in multiple contexts.

The arrival of the new digital environment has led to a revolution in the creation and the access to the information. One of the most remarkable consequences of this phenomenon is the Big Data, which refers to the huge amount of digitalized data that is used by distinct stakeholders for their analysis and use with different goals. This paper analyzes the consequences in the context of Personal Data Protection and lists the challenges and problems the Big Data implies in order to the legal principles that defend the privacy of the citizens.

Librarianship and Information Science (hereinafter B / CI), is the science that studies the registration and flow of knowledge and information; as well as the social circulation of the media that contain it (eg, journals), to make possible its use and organization of the scientific literature, from different approaches. The subject of libraries in relation to the democratic dimension and the conformation of citizenship, is fundamental in the work carried out by public libraries, because in these approaches the subject is observed from the library institution, the need for the formation of citizens to exercise an active / conscious citizenship and the relation of the subject with the State, through Information and Knowledge, in the protection of the different types of objects of social memories (printed, electronic and virtual). The history of popular magazines, as a form of social memory, have stood out since the first Erbauliche Monaths-Unterredungen, appeared between 1663 and 1668, Le Mercure Galant, of 1672, The Tatler of 1709 to 1711, among others. In Argentina, magazines such as El Mosquito in 1863, Don Quijote, from 1884 to 1905, Caras y Caretas, published between 1898 and 1941, Martín Fierro in 1904, have marked their own history. Over time, the magazines were consolidated as a communication, community and specialized scientific system, and also as a social memory. Currently, it is one of the media, in its different media, more consulted by different types of users. This work proposes to question the lack of social memory of the printed Argentine magazines GLTTIBQ.

Among the definitions of "observatory" the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy proposed as first meaning "place or position used to make observations." From the common connotation, an observatory, is a building or place where celestial and terrestrial phenomena are observed. These are installed in places that have a climate or appropriate conditions for the observation of that which is to study. It is an instrument of information with the aim of providing information of interest and social, scientific and technological relevance. Through a system of free, universal and free access, it provides information on a topic of importance and social need. (Adapted from ENRED The Information Society in the XXI century. Recognize that the concept of observatory is quite broad: a website or a study center can be renamed "observatory" for fashion, because it is running a project best understood with that denomination or because their aim is to analyze and produce information on a subject, activity, development or social, cultural or economic issue. An observatory of information must be recognized not only as a tool and source of social, scientific and technological but as a tool and object of research. Our research group is analyzing, from 2012, expansion and growing importance of observatories information in Argentina. We noticed in recent years greater role in disseminating information and as a source of investigation. We believe it is an interdisciplinary space in which the information professional, with special mention of the Librarian Documentalist must be present; further, we believe that they are an unavoidable performance space for information professionals.
