Abstract
This paper presents an overview of recent developments of the Co‐operative Online Bibliographic System and Services (COBISS) system in Slovenia. The COBISS system interconnects over 250 of the largest Slovenian libraries into a uniform Slovenian library information system. Also, COBISS is used by other independent library systems in some of the countries on the territory of the former Yugoslavia. The development of the COBISS shared cataloguing system and services runs parallel with the second software generation (COBISS2) and the new, object‐oriented technological platform (COBISS3). On COBISS2 the authority control and other services were introduced, whereas on COBISS3 the development of the interlibrary loan applications, acquisitions and other services is being carried out.
