【 摘 要 】

The objective of the article is to compare the Brazilian scientific production on Digital Heritage indexed in the Reference Database of Journal Articles in Information Science (BRAPCI) to what has been produced internationally and is indexed in the Web of Science (WoS). It comes from basic, qualitative, exploratory, descriptive, and bibliographic research. The corpus of analysis consists of 34 articles, 16 from BRAPCI and 18 from WOS, of which the main results are: scarce publication, but constant since 2005; 50% of articles published in Qualis A1 journals; in comparison, Brazil stands out in basic research, questioning the concept of memory in cyberspace. In international production, research focuses on the social reality of digital heritage and its transforming power in the preservation and dissemination of memory; the biggest distinction is in the way of treating digital heritage as an object of research, as 37.5% of research in Brazil is of an applied nature, while international production has an index of 77.8% in this aspect. Thus, it is necessary to reinforce, in the Brazilian informational debate, the dynamic and catalyzing effect of the concept of heritage in the digital interface, promoting new research and disseminating existing projects/initiatives in the applied scope of the area.
