In the coming days, one of the most important lecture series of the year on Documentation Technologies will take place. Professor Manuel Blázquez Ochando and physician Joaquín Hierro will present the OpenProdoc, Mbot, WauSearch, AMPdoc, and AXYZnews programs, offering a unique opportunity to gain firsthand insight into the development of new information technologies—and, of course, to meet their creators, with whom attendees can engage in discussion, exchange ideas, collaborate, and join forces to promote this indispensable pathway within Documentation Sciences.
