The general objective of this article is to present the proposal of a Virtual Program in Library Science and Information Studies for the Universidad de La Salle in Bogotá-Colombia. This proposal was generated as a result of a curricular research-innovation process, carried out to be in tune with the current trends that arise in the library discipline and profession and, in a particular way, the proposals related to the training processes in this field of education. knowledge. The methodology considered the triangulation of sources and information that was derived from the application of different research techniques: comparison of similar academic programs, survey carried out on an intentional-focused sample and guidelines indicated by the Ministry of National Education of Colombia and the University of La Salle for virtual programs. The conclusions raise the need to offer academic programs in this field of knowledge and under the virtual modality, as a strategy to expand educational coverage and socio-formative inclusion, for achieving the generation of library education alternatives that are required not only in Colombia, but in Latin America.
