Resumo: O conceito de informação como usado na linguagem cotidiana, no sentido de conhecimento comunicado, tem um importante papel na sociedade contemporânea. Este conceito ganhou relevância principalmente a partir do final da Segunda Guerra Mundial com a disseminação global do uso das redes de computadores. O nascimento da ciência da informação (CI), em meados dos anos cinqüenta, testemunha este fato. Para uma ciência, assim como para a CI, é sem dúvida, importante como seus termos fundamentais são definidos, e em CI, como em outros campos, geralmente é colocado o problema sobre como definir informação. Esta revisão é uma tentativa de traçar um panorama sobre a situação presente do conceito de informação em CI na perspectiva também de suas relações interdisciplinares.

Abstract: English in the sense knowledge communicated plays a central role in today’s society. The concept became particularly predominant since end of World War II with the widespread use of computer networks. The rise of information science in the middle fifties is a testimony of this. For a science like information science - IS - it is of course important how its fundamental terms are defined, and in IS as in other fields the problem of how to define information is often raised. This review is an attempt to overview the present status of the information concept in IS with a view also to interdisciplinary trends.
