This is a study on scientific production and its insertion in society, making known the access channels and the role of the agents involved, with the objective of investigating the approximation between science and society, verifying the virtual devices available for this interaction, observing the strategies and mechanisms correspondent academics based on these results to complete the analysis. The database of the Virtual Health Library, Periodicals Capes and PubMed were the chosen research sites with the time frame from 2015 to 2021. The results showed that the supply of digital technological resources for information and communication has been underused, but being limited to the process of making information available, lacking other factors such as transdisciplinarity in a collective and strategic task force seeking a common language that characterizes scientific popularization.
