November 1998 commemorates the 25th anniversary of the installation of the first Spanish terminal for online information retrieval. The author remembers some historic data and analyses the evolution of this technology that arrived to Spain through two separated actions: One leaded in 1973 by INTA (National Institute of Aerospace Technology), depending on the Ministry of Air (currently integrated in Defense) and CIDC (Consortium of Information and Documentation of Catalonia), with the economic support of FUNDESCO (Foundation for the Development of the Social Function of the Communications), depending on Telefónica. The other one was leaded in 1975, by CID (Information and Documentation Centre), currently CINDOC (Scientific Information and Documentation Centre), of the CSIC (Higher Council for Scientific Research). Finally the evolution of the hosts and the progressive vanishing of the classical online technologies in the new internet context is commented.
