Abstract

This study presents the result of a bibliographic research on scientific production on the theme of Library and Information Science and Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals, indexed in the Web of Science and Scopus between 2015 and 2021. The 2030 Agenda, set in 2015, presents the Sustainable Development Goals covering economic, cultural, environmental and social development. This study shows how libraries help to achieve these objectives using practical examples of cases verified all over the world. This is a descriptive study, with a qualitative methodological approach with quantitative support, but with emphasis on content analysis.
