Abstract

Information Architecture is a design methodology (design) that is applied to any information environment, this being understood as a space located in a particular context, consisting of content streams in serving a community of managers / decision makers / users. In this chapter a generic model is proposed to systematize the concept of Information Architecture with multiple views to illustrate how the epistemological and scientific implications affect its practical dimension. The epistemological bases can be applied to the solution of practical problems that arise in any informational environments, i.e., the space that integrates the context, content and users / managers / decision makers. The model is general and can be applied as such any information space in whichever form, format, content or type of information that constitute it, since a traditional library to a complex organization. Is not tied to people, organizational structure or any technology.
