Abstract
The author examines the current status of documentology. The difference between documentary, ontological and theoretical knowledge is explained as related to the sciences of documentary information, and development of documentology is discussed through the lens of the theory of the structure of scientific knowledge. Based on the logical typology of cognition objects as subjects of thought, the just identifications of subjects of thought and concepts related to information units denoted by the term “document” and related terms, are offered. The author analyzes several popular interpretations of various information units. The need for the common intertheory of documentology addressing the phenomena, processes, info units within the documentation activities and provision of socially significant information to the society, is substantiated.
