Abstract

The landscape of cyberculture increasingly facilitates the presence of technological resources within museum institutions. This context highlights Cybermuseology as a contemporary reality in museums. Against this backdrop, this research aimed to map the authorship and scientific output related to Cybermuseology as recorded in the Lattes Curriculum database. Specific objectives included: identifying key researchers who use the term Cybermuseology; analyzing the most recurring themes associated with the concept; verifying the institutional affiliations of the research; and understanding the processes of the field's epistemological consolidation. To this end, a documentary study was conducted on the Lattes Platform, characterized as exploratory and descriptive with a quantitative approach. The results identified 45 profiles with output involving Cybermuseology, comprising articles, theses, dissertations, conference papers, and books. The main thematic axes were: theoretical and conceptual aspects; heritage management and documentation; usability and interfaces; mediation and education; social networks and memory; and interdisciplinarity. The study concludes that Cybermuseology is an expanding field offering multiple avenues for theoretical and methodological application, given the advancement of digital information and communication technologies.
