<p>Dear colleagues (sorry, English only this time, but : translate.google.com or deepl. com, excellent tools !) ,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Questions about ABCD and its future have been asked a few times now on this list, out of serious concerns and under pressure from higher institutional authorities to consider changing to other software.</p>
<p>To really reply to such challenges we would need to write a full book... but let me try to put some basic elements here. The 'Unique Selling Points' (USP's) - meaning they mostly lack with the 'competition' - of ABCD which I see are the following (you decide
on the order of importance) : </p>
<p>1. ABCD is more than a library system, it can as well manage your repositories, scientific abstract-databases, factual databases, documentation centers, archives, musea... and with the 'meta-search' multi-database integrated search capability (which will
also be preserved in the new OPAC) this provides a more practical solution to end-users who don't have to (learn to) search all these different databases for which different softwares exist. For end-users the 'books' functions of libraries no longer are that
important, so being capable of other functions is crux. Also from the perspective of the library management this has advantages : instead of needing experts on all separate solutions (koha, dSpace, Calibre...) one expertise can do - this is important in case
of being a smaller library which has to be self-reliant.</p>
<p>2. ABCD is based on a long-standing expertise of the ISIS-community in librarianship (co-ordinated at that time by UNESCO, somehow also by FAO and WHO), allowing high professional standards without compromising like most commercial solutions do. Also without
being 'married' (=internally technically bound) to MARC, which as a standard is criticized and disappearing, but providing other standards like CEPAL, DC, ISADG, the future of ABCD does not depend on the future of one standard. </p>
<p>3. ABCD is all about flexibility : as a librarian/system-manager you can fully adjust it to your needs without real programming skills. Many ABCD-users have done so to a degree which would not have been possible with other softwares unless major software-development
efforts had been involved.</p>
<p>4. ABCD is still a fully 'non-profit' community, respecting the needs of the poorest in the library world. This is at the same time its main weakness : no commercial (e.g exLibris) or semi-commercial (PMB, koha) support companies exist.<br>
</p>
<br>
<p>There are other advantages but less 'unique' : FOSS, high performance (speed of retrieval e.g.). Speed is no longer an issue as it seems, unless one has to deal with older hardware. Being FOSS only really has an advantage when one invests in local technical
capacity rather than buying it in - and the desirability for this depends on your local conditions.
</p>
<p>Probably not a USP but worth to mention : ABCD is still maintained and runs on both Linux and Windows-servers. This has become less and less obvious but e.g. Windows is still considered important by also smaller libraries without much ICT-expertise.</p>
Being depending on external, mostly Western software companies or communities is not seen as a problem by most managers who prefer 'prestigious' names, we know. But that is not our (or my) view on international co-operation and emancipation.
<br>
<p></p>
<p>Functions-wise and technically ABCD is not deprived, most meaningful functions even if advanced, are there. We don't consider this anymore as a deciding criterion.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>It has become more and more difficult in almost any library environment, it seems, to defend a policy based on the above arguments. It can only work when one is very strongly convinced that these are indeed positive and important. But librarians also need
to take a bit of a distance from their own old-style fashions and professional beliefs (books on shelves, cataloging rules, circulation systems with sophisticated rules...) even if these are not disregarded in ABCD - to the contrary -, : they simply are becoming
less important. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>One last word : I think some of us - even if we are few - have proved that still ABCD software development is continued even if users-community support and appreciation has become less obvious and clear. From that perspective ABCD is still quite alive.

<font size="3" face="Calibri" color="black"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:Calibri; color:black">Queridos usuarios de ABCD, [English below]<br>
<br>
Saludos cordiales desde una Bélgica cerrada por corona, no diferente de la mayoría de sus situaciones como sabemos.<br>
Tenemos algunas malas y buenas noticias sobre ABCD que me gustaría publicar aquí.
<br>
<br>
En el momento de escribir esto, normalmente habríamos terminado un taller de participación limitada pero intensivo (en México) para preparar la nueva versión ABCD2.2. con el nuevo OPAC incluido y algunas otras buenas novedades. No es necesario informarles que
este taller no se materializó por razones obvias y ahora estamos buscando formas de trabajo alternativas mientras que el típico "impulso" de un taller físico como este se pierde inevitablemente, muy desafortunadamente.
<br>
Por lo tanto, disculpas por el retraso que va más allá de nosotros, como es obvio.
<br>
<br>
Sin embargo, seguimos trabajando en algunos otros temas relacionados con el ABCD, entre otros:
<br>
- un manual sobre cómo recuperar datos e información del exterior (por ejemplo, otros sistemas como los sistemas de registración de estudiantes)<br>
- una configuración con todas las bases de datos relacionadas con 'Secs-Web' pero usando Central, preservando algunas características avanzadas muy utíles como la generación automática de registros de existencias (si todavía hay gente interesada en la gestión
de series en ABCD ?)<br>
- mejor/más poderoso scripts de importación e indexación de texto completo para repositorios, etc.<br>
<br>
Deseándoles a todos una buena salud perdurable, física y mental!</span></font></p>
