The librarian's way of working has changed over time, especially with the development of Information and Communication Technologies. In the technological context, the professional started to have new ways of working, especially in the digital environment. Therefore, this research aims to understand how librarians can work as information architects in the job market. For this, we sought to highlight the history of the professional in Brazil, to understand the concepts related to Information Architecture and how it connects with Information Science and Librarianship, and to discuss the relationships between these two professionals. Bibliographic research was used to establish direct contact with the publications related to this subject. The results obtained show that there are relations between the professionals, especially in relation to the activities they perform, and thus the librarian's ability to work as an information architect is recognized.
