Abstract:
"Mediante la investigación científica pretendemos generar conocimiento
relevante que describa el Universo, su estructura y los procesos
subyacentes. Para arrojar luz sobre lo desconocido, los investigadores
debemos comprobar qué es lo que sabemos como comunidad científica.
Por ello es necesario estudiar los hallazgos y el conocimiento generado
por otros, y dar la máxima difusión a los resultados de nuestra
investigación. En este juego de leer, comunicar para ser leídos, e
intentar que nuestras ideas tengan la máxima implantación en una
disciplina, es necesario tener en cuenta el conocimiento existente, y que
otros investigadores reconozcan nuestro trabajo. En este contexto, la
referencia al trabajo de los demás se convierte en un acto obligado."

What is the difference between catalog /
database?

The catalogs collect a particular library collection,
indicating the location to which we can go and get it
or order it.

The databases only report the existence of the
document, not where you are. But many references
include the full text link.

We are in libraries:

• Screens OPAC for search in the
Online Catalog “CATÁLOGO
