The methodology considered the triangulation of sources and information that was derived from the application of different research techniques: comparison of simi-lar academic programs, survey carried out on an inten-tional-focused sample and guidelines indicated by the Ministry of National Education of Colombia and the University of La Salle for virtual programs. The con-clusions raise the need to offer academic programs in this field of knowledge and under the virtual modal-ity, 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.
