Introduction: We conducted an analysis of the discussions on Covid-19 in Podcasts and Webinars in the field of Information Science, focusing on its purposes and characteristics. Method: Data were collected along the checkpoints used for mapping and metadata analysis and later analyzed by researchers. Microsoft Excel was used to analyze the data. The study was limited to Podcasts originating in Brazil and the research was fully performed on Podcast aggregators and Social Networks. Results: We identified 390 unique events related to information science during the pandemic, with 70 episodes dealing specifically with Covid-19. The analysis revealed that podcasts with themes related to Covid-19 have common characteristics, emphasizing information flows and documental treatment of scientific communication. It also showed that the discussions on topics related to Covid-19 in podcasts vary among the areas of Archivology, Librarianship and Museology. Conclusions: The survey and analysis of Podcasts and Webinars in the area of Information Science demonstrated their relevance as communication channels to gather knowledge and discussions that directly or indirectly involve their practical and theoretical skills to address the communication challenges of Covid-19.
