In the 21st century governmental institutions and media in Lithuania pay a lot of attention to the development of "information" or "knowledge" society and are engaged in practical implementation of information technology (IT). Governmental institutions are concerned to keep pace with the European Union and neighbouring countries, especially Baltic countries, level. To develop and implement society's computer literacy require necessary technologies and means for which creation and development it is obligatory to possess computer devices, IT specialists, there ought to be approval of the state and society and reciprocal concern. School library as one of the most important parts in school experiences and has to overcome all the changes in educational and cultural systems to keep with information society. In order not to stay behind from public and academic libraries, which are provided with modern technologies, school libraries also must have electronic catalogue, which would facilitate the accounting and management of funds, delivery of the recourses existent in the funds. The Ministry of Education and Science in Lithuania announced the contest and in 2003 gave the licence to Ltd "Sintagma" which created software called MOBIS (information system of school libraries). The paper reviewed and evaluated implementation, different stages of implementation and functional potential of for schools designed computer-based catalogue MOBIS in Lithuanian schools' libraries, a survey of librarians in Lithuanian schools about implementation of this program in their working place, advantages and disadvantages of the system was carried out. According to the librarians, who have already installed electronic catalogue MOBIS, the system has essentially facilitated their work. MOBIS system gives them a chance to administer comfortably school library's funds. Cataloguing, gathering, administration and search of issues are performed quickly and efficiently. The system also provides a possibility to connect to the catalogues of other schools and copy the descriptions of issues. It helps to save time. However, many school libraries get not enough sponsorship and the support from school's resources is not sufficient so not all libraries are able to purchase the hardware necessary to work with the program MOBIS. The installation of MOBIS program in Lithuania's schools was planned to be accomplished till the end of 2006. Unfortunately, only a small number of schools can boast of full implementation and usage of this program. Although only in one third of schools this program is already installed, the work is not fully accomplished yet because there is a lack of necessary skills, time resources are too short, a shortage of librarians, there are not enough courses about installation and administration of MOBIS for librarians. Therefore a great deal of work waits for school librarians. Now it is difficult to foresee the problems. First steps are always complicated, however, namely the first steps confirmed the benefit of school libraries' computerisation and software MOBIS which also showed new work possibilities in the area of cataloguing, gathering and users' service.
