Avaliação de software em open source para a gestão da Biblioteca UNL no Campus de Caparica

O presente trabalho parte da caracterização da Biblioteca UNL para desenvolver um estudo de avaliação dos principais Sistemas Integrados de Gestão de Bibliotecas (SIGB) em open source. Os SIGB são utilizados na automatização dos processos de trabalho das bibliotecas, através de diversos módulos funcionais e opções de configuração, e permitem a interoperabilidade através de normas e protocolos. O open source define-se como abordagem para o desenvolvimento e distribuição de software baseada no livre acesso ao código fonte, estando assim em oposição ao conceito de software proprietário. A Biblioteca UNL é caracterizada através da sua organização, dos seus espaços e recursos, dos seus processos de gestão documental e da infraestrutura tecnológica subjacente. O open source é abordado a partir da sua contextualização histórica, da organização dos seus projectos, das vantagens e inconvenientes para as instituições e do desenvolvimento e adopção de SIGB open source.

THE ISLAMIC POLICY OF PORTUGUESE COLONIAL MOZAMBIQUE, 1960-1973

Drawing its information from different documents in Portuguese and French archives, this article examines the evolution of Portuguese colonial policies regarding Islam, focusing the special case of Mozambique. Such policies evolved from an attitude of neglect and open repression, prevalent in the early years of the colonial war, when Muslims were perceived as main supporters of the anti-colonial guerrilla in northern Mozambique, to a more nuanced approach that tried to isolate ‘African Muslims’ from foreign influences in order to align them with the Portuguese combat against the anti-colonial movement. The article analyses the latter strategy, assessing its successes and failures and the contributions made by several actors that were engaged in this achievement: the Catholic Church, the core of political power and its local ramifications in the colonies.
