Abstract
The more traditional systems of knowledge representation are based on hierarchies, in its various levels of rigidity. Thesaurus and, more recently, ontologies have brought more flexibility to the construction of documentary languages. In this scenario, the article invites for some reflections on the suitability of the tree's logic as the knowledge representation model and discusses the adoption of a new look from the Deleuzian's rhizome proposal and its possible implications for the organization of knowledge in information science. Discusses the implications of decal logic in usual processes of information representation. Considers that the construction of moderns indexing languages does not occur in isolation, but within information networks, what means that the tree's logic is not exactly the ideal model for knowledge representation. Discusses the possibility of adopting the deleuzean model in such processes
