English abstract

A union catalogue of the libraries of institutions of higher education can be started at a local level by enthusiastic library professionals. The catalogue must be online and compatible with each other, which will allow local cooperation among the libraries for offering better services to its users. An online catalogue will also help to avoid duplication of expensive documents in nearby institutions. These online catalogues can be gradually developed into a district-wide and then into a statewide catalogues for the benefit of users.
