Notes for the history of the National Center of Information on Medical Sciences of the Republic of Cuba The V Regional Congress of Information on Health Sciences, the III Coordination Meeting of the Virtual Health Library and the VIII Meeting of the Latin American and Caribbean System of Information on Health Sciences will be held in Havana City, April 23-27, 2001. This will be a propitious framework to make known, in a synthesized way, the activity carried out by the National Center of Information on Medical Sciences since it was founded 35 years ago, and to recognize the meritorious work of several generations of workers who have made possible the achievements attained by this Center. These historical notes have been prepared based on the testimonies of some protagonists of these conquests, as well as on the study of the relevant bibliography on this topic. We pretend with this essay that the present generation of professionals, technicians and other workers of the health information field be inspired by the example of those who preceded them and fulfill the task of making more visible the well-gained prestige of this bastion of the National Health System
