Teacher training in Information Science in Brazil is normatively formalized through teaching internships in postgraduate courses, in the doctorate and master's modalities. In order to comply with the regulations of the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior, the doctoral student on a scholarship must carry out activities related to the teaching internship in an undergraduate course, preferably linked to the intern's training and research area. Such activities are supervised by an advisor professor with a doctor's degree. This research aims to report the actions carried out by the doctoral student in Information Science, during the teaching internship. To meet the main objective, a brief literature review is presented that addresses the definition and possible actions taken by students and professors in the process of planning, acting, and completing the discipline; assessment of the existence of publications on the subject within the scope of Information Science in Brazil; It presents the students' perceptions about the methodological and evaluative processes addressed. This research is of a qualitative nature, of the descriptive type in which the researcher has direct contact with the researched environment, inserts himself in it to observe, evaluate and, in some cases, participate in it. Its method is the experience report, being related to the teaching internship in the graduation of the Librarianship and Management of Information Units Course at the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, within the scope of the discipline 'Fundamentals of Librarianship and Information Science'. The teaching internship, the result of this research, was developed by a doctoral student of the Graduate Program in Information Science at the Sao Paulo State University, in the first semester of 2022, in the face-to-face modality, under the direct supervision of a doctor in Information Science and course professor. It presents the perceptions of the actions of the intern teacher, through the application of a questionnaire elaborated in Google Forms and sent to the individual e-mail of the students of the discipline taught. It concludes that there is a need for trainees to perform in complementary activities beyond the classroom. It emphasizes that the learning developed through interaction with professors of the subject of teaching internship, aims to prepare future higher education professors for this environment. It highlights the need for research on the subject within the scope of Information Science, in order to encourage discussions about this universe.
