Estrategias de cooperación interinstitucional para la construcción de Recursos de Información para los tomadores de decisión: caso Perú
Abstract
This paper shares the experiences derived from adopting the regional model of the Peru's Health Virtual Library created by the Regional Medicine Library (BIREME, acronym in Portuguese), currently known as the Latin American and Caribbean Center on Health Sciences information. This model allows improving the access to information on health topics through free-access applications and methodologies for information management. This paper also shows the maturation process of the model, whose fruit is the creation of a space where the memory of the country is rescued on the subject of health.
