The Library Information Skills course is inserted as a three-lesson workshop within a research course in the Theology curriculum, whose purpose is to develop informational skills in the student and incorporate them into the research work carried out during the course. As a result, it has been observed in the students an improvement both in the search for information and in the use and management of bibliographic reference managers, and a knowledge/application of specific citation norms. In academics, the use of informational competencies in their teaching work is valued, as well as the systematization of collaborative work with the librarian in the development of the course. There is also an increase in the demand for consultations received by the librarian of the Theology Library. An analysis of the results is expected to be carried out to evaluate their scope and relevance in the Theology curriculum, to promote a researcher profile in the graduates.
