Library Science, which is the focus of this bibliographic research, has its birth associated with the nineteenth century, a time when the changes provoked a turning point in the field position. Previous to this definition, Library Science had been defined by pre-scientific and proto-scientific terms, which demonstrates a move towards the creation of such knowledge, reflected in practices and in some productions, especially the manual, also facing the library institution. Along the way Library Sciences intertwines other fields such as the Bibliography, Bibliology, Documentation, and from the twentieth century, Information Science, which contributes to the setting and boundary marking of the fields. Understanding this path of Library Science contributes to a greater understanding of its history and its constitutional process as a field of knowledge inserted into a process full of historical events, which focus on the development of Library Science.
