Abstract
CORDOBA GONZALEZ, Saray. La regionalización y la educación bibliotecológica universitarias en Costa Rica: ¿una coincidencia o un cincuentenario convenido?. E-Ciencias de la Información [online]. 2019, vol.9, n.1, pp.214-235. ISSN 1659-4142. http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/eci.v1i1.35419.
This essay proposes how the regionalization of higher education and university education in librarianship in Costa Rica coincide when they appear at a historical moment in which education became an angular piece of national development. From a review and interpretation of the events that occurred between 1967 and 1997 it is concluded that the conjunction of wills that occurred more than two decades after served to recognize the role that has played regionalization in the development of the profession in the Costarican regions. This birth was in no way a convention but a beautiful coincidence guided by the the national development needs.
