Resumen

Introduction: the goal of this research was to identify and understand the social network connections co-authored by the faculty of the Masters in Documentation and Information Sciences of the Languages Department of the School of Arts and Humanities of the University of Lisbon. We aimed to discuss the concepts and methods of analysis that ground this study: social network, co-authorship, social network analysis and bibliometric analysis. Method: this is an exploratory study supported by qualitative and quantitative approaches. For data collection, it uses the Ciencia Vitae platform, and for modeling and analyzing the social network, it uses the software Gephi. Results: the data collected in Ciencia Vitae and the social network connections and data generated in Gephi software were analyzed and discussed, thus validating the social network connections and identifying two eminent clusters and one isolated link. Conclusions: it achieves the proposed objectives and the investigation validates the existence of the information network between the professors of the course and external researchers, making it possible to understand the informational flow and verify that there are professors who do not have ties of connection by co-authorship with each other.
