Telematic networks and standard protocols for information retrieval ease the physical access to geographically scattered libraries. However, users have intellectual problems since they need a certain command of different languages to find publications whose records are written in a unique language. Multilingual facilities and, particularly, multilingual presentation and retrieval, can intellectually open the library catalogue to a wider range of international users. The present paper describes an attempt at using multilingual resources with a view to improving the user-OPAC interaction through the TRANSLIB project and its integration at «Biblioteca Hispánica de la Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional», which provides library users with advanced tools that support multilingual access.
