Abstract

This paper presents an incipient historical research on the activities of the Grupo de Documentación Mecanizada, formed by researchers of the then Librarianship career of the Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA), the Library Studies Institute of the UBA, the Calculus Center (National Technological University, Buenos Aires) and the Center for Research and Application of Computer Science of the UBA. From the work plan and the results published by the Grupo de Documentación Mecanizada, the initial questions formulated for the application of computers in the Argentine library field are recognized. It is possible to recognize in these first reflections by professionals of Librarianship and Documentation, the constitution of solid bases for the developments of Information Sciences in the last decades of the 20th century.
