The implementation of information literacy activities and programs occupies a central place in libraries in order to provide information and training on available services and resources, to promote the development of skills in the use and management of information and to strengthen the link with the user community. The return to post-pandemic presence in educational institutions was faced with the challenge of adopting the hybrid format with the design of didactic proposals according to user’ s needs and expectations. Likewise, the latest advances in artificial intelligence applied to research and learning present a new challenge and the need to strengthen the collaborative alliance with teachers and researchers to think of creative proposals together. The case of the Central Library of the National University of San Martín will be presented, which in recent years has built different in-person, virtual and hybrid spaces for information literacy.

Presentation on good practices of content curation of Spanish libraries in social networks, at the XIX International Conference on University Libraries (UNAM, Mexico, 19 October 2022). A taxonomy of content curation in social networks is proposed and two of its elements of analysis are developed in the presentation, with examples: Curation techniques, from less to more value contribution (Extracting, Retitling, Summarizing, Commenting, Citing, Parallelizing, Storyboarding) and Social media platforms, from less to more sense making facilities (Flipboard, Spotify, TikTok, Pinterest, Paper.li, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, Facebook, YouTube, Newsletter, Blog, Twitter).

Covid-19 started a process of digital acceleration that has continued unstoppable as it has also been identified as one of the keys to getting out of the current economic and social crisis. Within this framework, the Spanish government has published the Charter of Digital Rights that aims at anticipating future conflict scenarios resulting from the new digital context. By sharing the main aspects of the digital divide with the principles established in the Charter, the social risks of an accelerated digital transformation are analysed. It is determined that the digital gaps of access, use and appropriation can limit people's access to certain rights, some of them fundamental.

The global and competitive environment in which higher education is currently immersed also affects Spanish higher music conservatories. They, like the universities, compete to attract and retain students and faculty, using different strategies to stand out and influence the choice process. Social networks are one of the strategies used for the positioning and differentiation of higher music conservatories, becoming the appropriate channel for: a) to show society the activities and value provided by conservatories; b) to communicate with students; and c) to involve teachers and students in the creation of the corporate image through interaction with the centre. The main objective of this paper is to analyse the communication strategy used by Spanish music conservatories in social networks. For this, the uses and contents of the social networks of the 36 public and private Spanish higher conservatories of music during the month of February 2022 have been analyzed through a descriptive and analytical research. We used as a reference the models proposed by Pérez-Bonaventura, Tárrega and Vilajosana (2021), Brito, Laaser and Toloza (2012) and Paniagua-Rojano and Gómez-Calderón (2012) for the analysis of the use of social networks in the Spanish and Catalan universities, adapted to Spanish and Catalan universities, adapted to the specificity and characteristics of conservatories. The results reveal an unequal presence of conservatoires in social networks, being its majority use the promotion of their activities for the educational community and with few incentives for participation. The reduced number of interactions generated seems to show the lack of a clear and differentiated strategic planning.

A series of reflections are proposed around the understanding of the indigenous cultural identity of Argentina, the eventual contribution with experiences of documented orality in communities of native peoples and human libraries. Finally, the need to problematize the concept in the territory of Bilingual Intercultural Education is analyzed.

An analysis of the current situation of journalistic newsletters and a proposal for a system for investigating journalistic curation in newsletters are presented along with some results obtained.

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 work presents solutions to the normalization problems that currently have some entries in the Library “Prof. Dr. José Arce ”from the School of Dentistry, University of Buenos Aires (hereinafter, UBA) in some personal names of dental authors, focusing more precisely on the sources of information necessary and used to help detect their correct normalization within the control of authorities, in order to boost technical services in Argentine libraries specialized in the subject and contribute to the necessary National Bibliographic Control through cooperation.

The classification tools and the controlled vocabularies have a long intervention in the scientific literature of biases and criticisms about their endemic problems in relation to the treatment of the contents referring to non-heteronormative affective-sexual panoramas. Queer and gender theory have made their great contributions in involving functional, social and democratic solutions within the information processing that help the user to interact with the catalog by training suitable, open and prepared professionals for this task. Achieving the aforementioned would imply getting rid of a hegemony in the cataloging / classification to successfully reach the institutional catalog and the correct approach to the reference, participating in an interaction / reflection of the users with the professionals, showing and teaching the accessibility of the information from an inclusive perspective. The present proposal is carried out through an analysis of the relevant literature, paying special attention to the resources that come from the critical perspective of Social Library and considering two main main approaches: first, to point out the existing methods of historical stigmatization in the treatment of the information that comes from the indexing processes and the second refers to possible tools to use to exercise good library practices, thus guaranteeing the recognition of all relevant discourse in relation to the representativeness and accessibility of the GLTTIBQ community.

The objective of this presentation is to comment on the experience of the virtual dictation of the subjects "Libraries in the Sociocultural Context" and "Information Resources and Services", belonging to the Higher Technique in Library Science and Information Sciences of the Institute of Higher Education N 6001 of the province of Salta. In each one of them, future librarians and librarians developed digital competencies that will serve as support for their future practice as information professionals.

Our work tries to share and account for the planning and systematization in social networks that we have been carrying out in Mar del Plata's FASTA University Library during the context of the Covid 19 pandemic. We have used a 5-stage work scheme: 1) Definition of objectives and priorities; 2) Generation of worksheet; 3) Scheduling; 4) Image search and template creation and 5) Publication. Regarding the projected published content, the following: ephemeris, dissemination of services, conservation tips, search tips, humor, phrases, interaction. Planning allows us to maintain a constant presence on social networks and at the same time simplify the dissemination process, guarantee a variety of quality publications and optimize time. However, we understand that it is not a closed recipe but a continuous development.

A brief reflection on the university link between Social Library training within the University of Buenos Aires with current society in times of pandemic and its necessary consolidation, reformulation and reflection of the necessary curricular spaces linking, information and knowledge is proposed. with the necessary social practices in times of emergency.

All services are important in a specialized library, but that of virtual reference becomes an essential component in an era traversed by the COVID 19 pandemic. Based on a sample of inquiries with particular characteristics that arrived at the CDI by email during 2020-2021 the so-called "orphan consultations" have been detected, defining and classifying them in order to study them and ask various questions about them, detailing the social and resilient actions of the CDI in search of collaboration with citizens during a time of deep crisis .

Content curation is an activity that consists of the selection of digital content and its subsequent re-elaboration and publication or dissemination of the same. In recent years, its use in social networks is fundamental, since it guarantees the dissemination of content in different ways and generates greater promotion and a new vision about said content, attracting new readers or interested parties. This is the case of scientific journals, which disseminate the scientific content they publish, as well as eventually other content related to their thematic areas, on their own social platforms. Good content curation, and scientific content is no exception, requires the correct use of curation strategies and techniques. This paper aims to study the good practices in content curation of Ibero-American communication journals listed in the SCImago Journal Rank (SJR). A list of 44 journals was obtained, of which active social networks were only found in 16 of them. Next, the publications on these social networks were reviewed following an analysis template, around the type or healing technique used and the topic addressed. As topics, the contents about the current number, other numbers and notices/various contents were considered. As techniques, the main ones described in the specialized bibliography were considered: extracting, renaming, summarizing, commenting, citing, storyboarding and parallelizing. Finally, from all the information found, a series of good practices were extracted, which can serve as a reference for publications in the sector and other magazines when presenting their scientific content on social networks. Among the results of the research, it can be seen how extracting prevails in journals depending on the ease of its application, that in some cases there is an outstanding use of techniques that provide more added value to the publication, such as summarizing, commenting or to cite, and lastly, Storyboarding and parallelizing techniques were the least used.

Two possible strategies are proposed in the face of disinformation through the use of content curation, which we have called curating the truth and curating the lie. The first is the traditional conception of content curation, which seeks to optimize existing valuable content. The second is the curation process linked to the support or backing of fact-checking of hoaxes, rumors, and falsehoods. Both strategies are exemplified through four cases of curation publications on Twitter. Some implications such as the identification and access to the sources of the hoaxes or the cost of the strategies are discussed.
