Abstract

Burke highlighted the importance of librarians in the process of producing, classifying and circulating knowledge, with special emphasis on their work in academic contexts. He also drew attention to the distinction between serious research, which is increasingly essential, and a quick search for information on the internet. The researcher stressed that it is still possible to carry out rigorous and in-depth research in contemporary times.
