It analyzes the political processes and information management in the Library System of the Federal University of Paraíba (SISTEMOTECA/UFPB). Therefore, and as the first objective, we characterize the specific information regime of SISTEMOTECA/UFPB, identifying the elements that constitute it. Then, we map the information management practices developed by managers, who in this research were represented by the coordinators of libraries of members SISTEMOTECA/UFPB. With management practices set, we could also identify barriers, in the view of managers, who interfered in the information management process. From this analysis material was proposed information actions that could effectively contribute to the construction of an Information Management Policy specifically directed to SISTEMOTECA/UFPB thus contributing to the improvement of performance of this set of libraries. With regard to methodology, was used action research, coherent method for our purposes by enhancing the participation of investigated, together with the ability to bring about change, such information actions. As to the goal, the research is expressed in exploratory and descriptive, which contributed to the achievement of new approaches and prospects for study, as well as the understanding of characteristics, opinions, attitudes and beliefs of certain groups participating in the research. Regarding the nature of the research, the approach used was qualitative, allowing greater interaction between researcher and managers of libraries belonging to UFPB. The theoretical framework begins with analysis of the origin, concepts and relationships in Information Science. In sequence, we approach the information management, especially the procedural model of information management formulated by Choo (2003). Information policies are discussed under the context of university libraries, emphasizing its regulatory and normative character, as well as its benefits to the library system. The information regime was investigated, seeking to characterize and identify the formative elements of the specific regime of SISTEMOTECA/UFPB. In the analysis of the management information process undertaken by the managers of libraries members of SISTEMOTECA/UFPB, we realize that many effectively undertake practices related needs, acquisition and use of information. However, in reference to the organization of stages and storage products and services and distribution of information, it was found the need for improvement and implementation of major practices of information management. Finally, we establish the information actions inherent and necessary for the specific Management Policy Information aimed at social reality of SISTEMOTECA/UFPB.
