Popis: The INIDEP Library (National Institute for Fisheries Research and Development, Argentina), has worked for already two decades with ISIS software, and now since the ISIS3 – 3rd ISIS World Congress last September 2008 held in Río de Janeiro, Brasil, with the launching of ISIS-Network Based Plataform (NBP), it is confronting the challenge to migrate to the new Automation of Libraries and Documentation Centers (ABCD) System. The ABCD, until June 2009 in Beta version, is an integrated library management software comprising the basic library functions. It is “Free and Open Source Software” (FOSS), freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve; FOSS nowadays is becoming a serious option that all libraries must consider as part of any software procurement process. The INIDEP Computing Center and The Library faced the need to solve the metadata retrieval and digital storage of 9 types of Internal Technical Reports, produced by INIDEP scientists, core institutional grey literature, most of them assessment reports for the Fisheries Authority, with a great variety of circulation level restrictions. With this purpose, a Referential Database with ABCD was recommended and developed. The final product highly satisfied the demand of the INIDEP Scientific Administrators because the local web-interphase is easy to handle by inputters; the possibility of data output in Excel format of great value for scientific evaluation purposes, and many other interesting features
