One of the characteristics that makes human beings human is the skill of learning their own language and other languages. Human creativity in the use of language is the result not so much of the power of thought but of the limits, the culture places on the language. It is thought, logic, knowledge, meaning, culture and society that form language, that constitute concepts. Each written work added to the field of Information and Records Management is defined/described, classified and made available to the user through subject headings/indexing concepts assigned by the information specialist in the context of the language characteristics. The information professional does not evaluate language as a tool and set of rules (grammar) alone, but with the characteristics of thought, meaning, culture and society in which it is used. A source is reinterpreted and named with language in the context of purpose-meaning. The present work, while trying to define the Information and Records Management-language relationship with aphorisms, aims to contribute to the information professional's awareness and sensitivity in the context of language-meaning-culture.

In recent years, the number of people who want to become associate professors in the field of Information and Records Management has increased without attending any stage such as undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate. Taking the title of associate professor, one of the most important stages of academic life, in an academic discipline where there is no education does not seem very understandable. In the field of Information and Records Management, it will be important to make some joint decisions in this regard. Having a common attitude in this regard will create some drawbacks for tomorrow; at least I think that it will be meaningful for those who will apply as candidates for this position in this field to know the criteria. Most importantly, in an environment where the qualitative value of universities becomes unclear, the field of Information and Records Management will be away from this complexity for a while.
