The implementation and use of ICTs in rural areas little affected in the work of these communities because there are no computer systems in their native language which increases social exclusion and technology, coupled with this situation, this lack of financial resources . Alternatively, the paper proposes to focus efforts on the implementation of the free software distribution called OpenBiblio Nahuatl, which will automate all the activities that are conducted in a community library, this action to endow technology and manuals for administration. These actions will be complemented by the provision of other free software tools to support information management, returning to the library is a repository of data and a catalyst of ICTs to their community. In the first stage of the system will be available to be implemented in communities where they speak Nahuatl, the language spoken by 40 percent of Mexico's indigenous population. In addition, the library must consider certain technical requirements to operate which are statements in the trial. As the system is developed with free software can be freely shared and if necessary the user interface can be deployed in another language. Note that OpenBiblio works along the lines of Marc 21 bibliographic format to ensure compatibility with other systems.References
