            Abstract : 
The Brazilian National Synchrotron Light Laboratory, LNLS, operates a 1.37 GeV electron storage ring with a 120 MeV injector linac. Commissioning of the storage ring at low energy started on May 1996 and now, an year later, we can store 120 mA at 120 MeV and ramp more than 75 mA to 1.37 GeV. A summary of the latest commissioning results and a description of the present operational performance of the LNLS Synchrotron Light Source facility is presented
