This article, first, presents some tendencies on current education and relates the social demands of globalisation and technological advances to the education of professionals in Library and Information Science. Second, it introduces the concepts of “knowledge” and “competence”, showing how they can be approached in some of the disciplines of Library and Information Science, and how they cam be integrated with the concepts of what literature has been calling recently as ‘knowing what” in opposition to “knowing how”. The article concludes proposing that library programs, because of the professionals activities information science professionals will be involved in, should contemplate the development of both knowledges, “knowing what”- emphasising the development of academic skills, and “knowing how”- the ability to interpret knowledges for the solution of problems.
