Significant knowledge has been acquired by ORSTOM documentalists in the field of documentation engineering. This expertise has particularly increased with the development of the online HORIZON database, to which an ORSTOM server gives online access. A transfer of documentation engineering know-how has taken place in partnership with developing countries. At the ORSTOM centre located in Lome, Togo, an online bibliographic database server has been implemented on a workstation that can be accessed through the TOGOPAC network. Available databases are POPTOGO, developed by documentalists at the Demographic Research Unit at the University of Benin, and HORITOGO, developed by documentalists at the ORSTOM centre in Lome. Resources used show that low-cost documentation engineering partnerships are possible and that online access and data acquisition from producing countries is a reality in Africa. (Résumé d'auteur)
