Among the definitions of "observatory" the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy proposed as first meaning "place or position used to make observations." From the common connotation, an observatory, is a building or place where celestial and terrestrial phenomena are observed. These are installed in places that have a climate or appropriate conditions for the observation of that which is to study. It is an instrument of information with the aim of providing information of interest and social, scientific and technological relevance. Through a system of free, universal and free access, it provides information on a topic of importance and social need. (Adapted from ENRED The Information Society in the XXI century. Recognize that the concept of observatory is quite broad: a website or a study center can be renamed "observatory" for fashion, because it is running a project best understood with that denomination or because their aim is to analyze and produce information on a subject, activity, development or social, cultural or economic issue. An observatory of information must be recognized not only as a tool and source of social, scientific and technological but as a tool and object of research. Our research group is analyzing, from 2012, expansion and growing importance of observatories information in Argentina. We noticed in recent years greater role in disseminating information and as a source of investigation. We believe it is an interdisciplinary space in which the information professional, with special mention of the Librarian Documentalist must be present; further, we believe that they are an unavoidable performance space for information professionals.
