English abstract
The current communication approaches the situation of the development of repositories that use the Open Archives Initiative (OAI) protocol for data collection. These type of digital libraries are undergoing a worldwide boom. This work studies the current state of their implantation in Spain, Portugal and Latin America. In order to do so, the existing projects in the official records have been studied using a methodology beyond the existing records of repositories. It concludes that the situation in 2006 is fairly encouraging in so far as the number of projects, but that it is quite deficient as concerns the quantity of data stored.

Esta comunicación aborda la situación del desarrollo de los repositorios que usan el protocolo de recogida de datos Open Archives Initiative (OAI). Este tipo de bibliotecas digitales están experimentando un auge en todo el mundo. Este trabajo estudia la situación actual de su implantación en España, Portugal y América Latina. Para ello, se han estudiado los proyectos existentes en los documentos oficiales utilizando una metodología que va más allá de los registros existentes en los repositorios. Se llega a la conclusión de que la situación en el 2006 es bastante alentadora en relación al número de proyectos, pero que es muy deficiente en lo que respecta a la cantidad de datos almacenados.
