It points out the contributions that the phenomenology can offer to studies of information behavior, specially the model of social distribution of knowledge, of Alfred Schultz, which promotes the understanding of complex social interactions, which occurred in the process of seeking and using information. Presents the methodology of an ongoing study of users to show the adoption of phenomenology as a methodological approach can contribute to such studies.
