The professional librarian has as object of study the recorded information, as well as its processes of analysis, description, retrieval, and mediation. It is understood that all information conveyed in a support is a manifestation of human language, so linguistics, or language science, has a lot to offer in the training of the librarian. It starts with the survey of Brazilian universities in operation that offer the Librarianship course, having as object of analysis the faculties that teach subjects related to linguistics, communication, and information, and that have the menu and the teaching plan available. The objective is to analyze the use of linguistics in the professional training of librarians, for this, disciplines focused on library techniques in common among courses based on linguistics and separated between the theoretical aspects of language will be listed. It is noted that linguistics as a discipline is not offered by most courses, in addition to not being the basis for the structuring of related disciplines. It is concluded that the dedication to linguistic study is still introductory, highlighting the need for studies that deepen this approach to linguistics.
