Egbert de Smet
Egbert de Smet is born, has studied and is still living in Antwerp, Belgium. He first obtained his university degree in Sociology. Later on, he turned to information science and technology and obtained his PhD in Information Science with a research project on Community Information Services in public libraries. The social sciences background still drives his more technological interest and work. He is mostly active in international co-operation projects for information services. He also has extensive experience, through his work for INASP during the first decade of 2000, with a theme of academic information access for Developing Countries. He is an expert in the ISIS-technology and based on this became the supervisor of the ABCD system development with the support of the Flemish (Belgian) Interuniversity Council. In his publications and projects he promotes the documentary database approach as illustrated by ISIS and ABCD. Currently, he is working as a project-coordinator for the University of Antwerp.
