The development of new technologies has promoted profound transformations in the world of work, demanding the formation of differentiated professionals capable of keeping up with these structural changes. Technological advances have, in fact, forced catalogers to seek professional updating and to train themselves for the transformations in the work environment. Given this scenario, this research aims to map the academic-scientific production about the professional skills and competencies in a Liquid World applied to the cataloger's profile. To achieve this general objective, the following specific objectives were outlined: a) diagnose terms that are part of the Liquid World; b) define search expressions to be adopted in the research; c) analyze academic-scientific platforms in the area of Information Science and Sciences in general; d) analyze the types of studies focused on the Liquid World and the areas in which they are developed; e) evaluate the skills and competencies required of librarians. This is a research with an exploratory-bibliographical approach, of an applied nature. As a methodological procedure, a systematic mapping of literature was carried out in the following databases: Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD); Reference Database of Journal Articles in Information Science (BRAPCI); Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO); Web of Science (WoS); and Portal de Periódicos CAPES. As a result, it is concluded that the concepts of Liquidity, Fluidity, Liquid World and Liquid Times, presented by the sociologist Zigmunt Bauman, appear in an incipient way in Information Science, and are not yet used in cataloging contexts, nor in relation to the skills and competences of the cataloger. The result of this research points out that there is still a long way to go for professional adaptation to the transformations experienced in post-modernity. This finding generates a discussion about the urgency of preparing professionals in these areas for the changes underway. As an academic and social contribution, the research aims to provide subsidies for librarians to reorient their professional practice.
