ISEAS Library, in late 1993,
installed a fully integrated system and developed two major databases, SEALion and SEABase. In addition, smaller databases have been
developed namely Library's biography database, SEABiog, the database of private papers, SEAPriv, and a full text database SEAText containing articles and
documents.
