Percepção dos gestores de escolas públicas do ensino fundamental em relação à biblioteca escolar

Abstract

It analyzes the perception of the managers of the Municipal Public Schools of Primary Education I, located in the Regional Area VI, Fortaleza, in relation to the School Library. The public school plays an important role in promoting access to education, especially for economically disadvantaged classes, through the universalization of basic, free and quality education. And in this context, the School Library, understood as the physical and digital environment that contributes to the pedagogical achievement through research activities and promotion of reading, writing, art, culture practices, becomes an indispensable resource for the promotion of integral education of students, as well as the development of the school community. The study was based on exploratory research with qualitative approach and questionnaire application. The results obtained indicate that most of the consulted managers recognize the contribution that the library can offer to the school and thus believe in the improvement that the universalization of the same will provide for education. It is concluded that the school librarian, in addition to performing the functions related to the environment, to the organization, preservation and dissemination of information, must be able, in partnership with the teacher, to carry out activities that aid in the educational process.
