UNESCO and the Association of the Amazon Universities (UNAMAZ) co-operate to create a virtual Library of the Amazons. The CD-ROM series "Amazon Imaginary Narratives" is the first project being implemented within this framework. The first CD-ROM in a series of 14 issues will soon be published. It will include :

  • a reference data base of phonographic records of 3,000 narratives;
  • presentation (voice) of selected texts;
  • illustration of narratives through photos, videos, drawings and animation;
  • translation of texts into Spanish, French and English;
  • dissemination of products through a CD-ROM (3,000 copies) and the Internet;
  • integration of data bases into the Internet for national and international consultation.
