Abstract

The Knowledge Organization Systems (KOS) as tools used to interpret knowledge structuresare considered, helping in the organization, representation and retrieval of information. It is discussed to what extent the entries as Knowledge Organization (KO) tools contribute to understanding and greater applicability, in the sense of contributing to the Information Science area in what concerns information retrieval. For this, a data survey was carried out considering the terms retrieved in ISKO, identified by the ISKO Encyclopedia of Knowledge Organization (IEKO). The analysis was performed using the content analysis methodology. Based on the approach proposed by this work, 32 articles were retrieved to discuss the concepts of KOS in the Brazilian Information Science literature. As a result, we identified the entries that made it possible to direct some theoretical and practical contributions in the context of KO. The entries retrieved in IEKO are classification systems and show that this system orders and highlights the KO process for its particular use, but that its practice does not contribute for the knowledge to be retrieved, being necessary the conjunction with another process, such as indexing, so that it can be retrieved by subject, which allows us to conclude that indexing assigns representative terms based on the concepts of the material, allowing us to observe how IEKO has understood the KO processes and systems. For several authors, KO is approached from different thoughts and points of view: the KOS as a process addresses the representation, organization, description of documents, using classification, indexing and cataloging as a procedure; and KOS as a tool, uses rules and standards such as classification systems, thesauri, ontologies and so on.
