Introduction:

lending service from the textbook store constitutes one of the most important processes within the University of Medical Sciences. In these centers, no applications have been designed to manage the processes of book-lending. It is made through individual cards by users; this slows down the process in the times of greater flow of users. The present research establishes the implementation of computerization, and the continuance of Informatization in the textbook- lending service at Pinar del Rio University of Medical Sciences.

Objective:

to implement the computerization in the textbook-lending service at Pinar del Rio University of Medical Sciences.

Methods:

theoretical methods: historical-logical and analysis of documents related to the process of management of the textbooks.

Results:

a previously designed application was implemented and tested, which provides the necessary functions to manage and control the textbooks in the book store. Its implementation improves the quality of the lending service and allows having an accurate control of all the textbooks, providing at the same time faster and accurate responses to all the information requested by the higher level.

Conclusions:

a novel product was obtained since there is no background in the University of Medical Sciences. With its implementation the process of management of the textbooks at Pinar del Río University of Medical Sciences was computerized, and its application improves the quality of the service for both students and professors.
