Dear colleagues

_Report on the 1st online presentation of the Antwerp workshop._

As you all know already, during this week we are working in a closed 
workshop to prepare the next release of ABCD, organized by Egbert de 
Smet and sponsored by his project DOCBIBLAS of VLIR.

On behalf of this workshop we have planned, together with Bireme, to 
broadcast 4 online presentation in real time about some advanced 
technologies which are being incorporated into the ISIS family. See 
below the program of the presentations.

The first three presentations are technical, therefore experts with this 
profile were invited to register on beforehand and they were sent 
instructions with the URL for the connection. Until last Sunday 54 
institutions registered from 22 countries, on top of BIREME and VLIR.

For the presentation of today, regarding */ISIS-OAI-Provider/**/, /*we 
had about 37 institutions connected with more than 50 participants.

*/ISIS-OAI-Provider/* is an application allowing ISIS databases to be 
registered and collected for the "harvesters" of the OAI protocol. The 
applicaiton is programmed in PHP, and runs on any platform and server. 
Bireme will promote installation of this function in the whole network 
of health libraries participating in the VHL, and shares the application 
with ABCD installations to allow publishing their own databases in the 
international OAI systems.

The applications is already operational in a test version, while 
documentation in English and Spanish is being prepared. The installation 
package comes with pre-defined formats for LILACS but can be customized 
to MARC or CEPAL formats. Bireme invites to donwload the installation 
package, experience and communicate any commentary or problem.

In view of the success of this presentation, e.g. no connection problems 
were experienced, we will arrange an invitation to connect for the 
Friday presentation, open to anybody interested to participate. This 
presentation will be in English and Spanish. Tomorrow we will give the 
instructions and URL for the connection.

Regards,

Ernesto Spinak & Egbert de Smet
