[Isis-users] MARC file import - about CISIS source

[spinaker]

Andrew

Sorry for my delay in answer your request

CISIS version for all platforms and sizes you can download from the svn 
of Bireme
http://trac.reddes.bvsalud.org/projects/cisis/browser

Some documentation is in Bireme's wiki (English version) with 
descriptions and manuals
http://wiki.bireme.org/en/index.php/CISIS

Regards

Ernesto Spinak
