Abstract

This article refers to the initial stage of a project generated in the early 1980s in CAICYT (Argentine Centre for Scientific and Technological Information); the project was dedicated to bibliographic information retrieval in databases through terminals connected to remote computers. The project led to the formation of a workgroup composed by representatives from various institutions that pioneered interactive access to foreign science and technology databases from Argentina. It addresses the technological, institutional and disciplinary context of the project, the works undertaken to provide the infrastructure and equipment that were necessary, the profile and initial training of the professionals involved, and dissemination activities that were performed. The second part will deal with the development, activities and legacy of the group.
