The analysis of knowledge classification systems in Philosophy and Librarianship by a critical historical-conceptual point of view with an approach in the concepts of class, category and facet was developed from specific objectives to accompany and outline the path of knowledge (classes) and beings (categories) classification in relation to Philosophy; to investigate the possible influences that the philosophical classification historically exerted on traditional bibliographical classifications; and to verify in which way the specific concept of category, class and facet have been defined in the ambit of traditional librarianship classifications.This research is of exploratory-descriptive type, based upon pertinent literature, resulting from both areas of knowledge in discussion.From the studied bibliographical material, a theoretical reference was built, leading to objectivation, analysis, discussion and a profound study of the object.It's possible to affirm that even the principles of philosophical classifications in relation to knowledge and beings, as well as the classifications that divide knowledge and beings, are presented as constructs, purposed to understand and to train the information of beings and knowledge.The influence of philosophical classifications on bibliographical classification is settled by bibliographical classifications, which are adaptations of knowledge or science.The bibliographical ones, frequently utilize terms originated from philosophical that are modified and transformed into tools.In synthesis, it may be stated that, from Philosophy, absorbed in theoretical explanations, even Librarianship, worried with instrumental and application (pragmatic) solutions, the proposed plans of bibliographical classifications have been beneficiated from the approximation of this two areas of knowledge.The conceptual review in relation to notions of class, category and facet needs a better attention in design, planning and in the structuring of classification systems, as pointed out by experts on Classification, in the modification and specification of classification tables and also indexation languages, aiming its adequacy and significance.The resulting contributions, outlined by a functionalinstrumental perspective, would help professionals to reconsider their systems of ideas and procedures in relation to construction and evaluation of indexation languages and regular classification of documents.The information science will be responsible to develop theory fundamentation of its application field, discussing critically its conceptual basis, with attention to the practices in use by Librarianship and Documentation in relation to terms and concepts.The study validates the hypothesis initially described, determining that the terminological consistency of terms as category, class or facet contribute to improve the operacionalization of knowledge processing in Information Science and that to category schemes it doesn't fit a neuter value, since that always favored a certain conception of the world, in which predominates its pragmatic nature As result of the investigation, some perspectives are presented, selecting questions of extreme relevancy and interest for future researches
