The possible applications in the technical, scientific, commercial and legal fields are identified and classified. It refers to the work of the librarian related to the patents because its treatment requires knowledge of the profession. It is concluded that patents should be considered invaluable source of relevant information for competitiveness in organizations. However, their use has not been promoted accurately in developing countries like ours. This tendency should be corrected in order to make use of this resource for the development and innovation of our region.

The introduction to technologies of information and communications in the processes of academic peer-reviewed information exchange will necessarily produce a change from the paper pattern to the electronic one. CENIC Journals, Biological Sciences and Chemical Sciences, were the first Cuban journals to be published in CD-ROM. However, the need for indexation of the serial publications from the Ministry of Higher Education in full text database in Internet, with the aim of obtaining a wider visibility of Cuban science, has been manifested. This paper had the aim of knowing the opinion of authors and readers of CENIC journals, about the kind of full text database available in the World Wide Web where they should appear, as well as evaluating the skills of the researchers for search, recovery, organization and elaboration of electronic documents, and basis of these analysis to create the procedures for the publication of CENIC Journals in Internet and its incorporation to Fuente Académica database, belonging to EBSCO Host, one of the most prestigious database at international level. The researchers with the degree of PhD in sciences propose the publication of CENIC journals "in electronic pattern in prestigious database". On the other hand, researchers from all scientific degrees coincide in "not recommending" the publication of only the electronic version this is , they coincide in the need for keeping the printed version, and only the researchers with a lower rank propose "to increase the run" The culture of work with remote database handlers of bibliographic references and personal digitalized libraries from the researchers and members from the CNIC Board Committee was assessed as BAD or FAIR. An the basis of the personal opinions collected the procedure for the publication of CNIC Scientific Journals was performed in WWW, used in the EBSCO project' Digital Journals for the popularization of Science and Technology for Latin America and the Caribbean" [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper attempts to locate the origin of the history of ideas from XIX century in Colombia, in the interpretative intention of the authors of the second half of the century, who have the intention to give meaning to historical facts using a conceptual structure taken from different ideologies or philosophic currents in vogue at that moment in Europe, without stopping in the purely descriptive or historical interest. In the twentieth century we will be studying relevant authors or publishing their original studies to complete a certain canon of representatives from the intellectuality of the epoch. The question is for the criterion which defines the selection and the mode to link the ideas in general and the philosophical in particular to the development of the cultural and social processes. The paper shows some alternative hypotheses that take the contributions from text science and other contemporary disciplines that consider the study of the ideas of the XIX century without falling into the totalizations that have been censured.

The purpose of this bibliography is to present social psychologists with a comprehensive listing of research works published between 1976 and 1979 by Latin American social psychologists. The bibliography hopes to solve some of the problems encountered by English-speaking psychologists who wish to keep abreast of recent developments in Latin America: Most of the articles are published in Spanish or Portuguese in journals that are difficult to obtain at U.S. or Canadian libraries. This bibliography joins other previous efforts to inform English-speaking psychologists of works carried out in Latin America. Foremost among these are Ardila and Finley's (1975) bibliography on Latin American psychology and Marin' s (1978, 1979, 1980) previous bibliographies on Latin American social psychology, Citations included in this bibliography met the following criteria: (1) the work was written by a Latin American or the data was collected in Latin America (throughout the bibliography, Latin America was perceived to be all countries in the .Americas excluding the United States and Canada); (2) the cover date of the publication ranged from 1976 to 1979; and (3) the theme of the article was perceived in Latin America as being within the domain of social psychology. Works are cited by topics, and alphabetically within each topic. All citations include the original title of the article or book and its English translation where appropriate. Each abstract is nonevaluative and includes the most significant aspects of the contents of each citation. Reprints of the articles can be secured by contacting the authors. Their addresses can be obtained by consulting the recent International Directory of Psychologists (Jacobson & Reinert, 1980), or by writing the author of this bibliography. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
