JOSÉ MARÍA CALÉS DE JUAN La Paz –Bolivia 2009 ii RESUMEN La motivación de éste trabajo nace como consecuencia de la observación de los dificultosos procesos de publicación de la producción intelectual y del posterior olvido de dichas producciones en anaqueles de las diferentes unidades de la Universidad Mayor de San Andrés (UMSA). La sociedad cuestiona el quehacer universitario y no tiene la forma de saber cuales son las actividades académicas y de investigación que se realizan en este tipo de instituciones. La difusión de la información en el tradicional formato de papel es costosa por los procesos de impresión, almacenamiento y distribución de dichas obras. Por otra parte la instalación de Nuevas Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación en la UMSA ofrece oportunidades poco conocidas para encarar soluciones más eficaces y eficientes en el proceso de difusión de la producción intelectual que conlleva un costo mucho menor y moderniza los procesos que a su vez son mucho mas versátiles que los antiguos métodos. El trabajo entonces inicia por hacer un análisis de las diferentes tecnologías de producción y despliegue de ebooks disponibles en el mercado. Se revisan tanto los productos de software como los de hardware desde el punto de vista de su evolución y su proyección futura de acuerdo a las tendencias mundiales en desarrollo.
