  • Challenges and Opportunities of Multilingual Library Websites: Evidence from a Developing Country
    International Journal of Business and Management Invention ISSN (Online): 2319 – 8028, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 801X www.ijbmi.org Volume 1 Issue 1 ‖‖ December. 2012 ‖‖ PP.01-15 Challenges and Opportunities of Multilingual Library Websites: Evidence from a Developing Country Amir Manzoor (Management Sciences Department, Bahria University, Karachi, Pakistan) ABSTRACT: This study investigates the language barriers on library websites, analyzingdata collected from 133 library websites in Pakistan. Despite a significant increase in the number of library websites in Pakistan, the development of multilingual library websites is still in its infancy stages and doesn’t cater to the needs of diverse population of its users. The study provides first-hand findings on the multilinguality of library websites in Pakistan with a focus on challenges and opportunities arising from such websites. Implications of research along with future research directions are also discussed. Keywords––Language Barriers, Library Websites, Multilingual Websites, Machine Translation. I. INTRODUCTION Language barriers are natural in human communication. In cross border communication, these barriers not only include dominance of a particular language (e.g. English) but also the increasingly multilingual the Internet [(David Crystal 2001); (Becker 2007)]. Since beginning of the last decade, the multilinguality on the Internet has sharply increased with online content available in hundreds of languages [(Crystal 2006); (Kelsey 2011)]. This increased multilinguality has created new challenges for language barriers. In order to facilitate the multilingual users to effectively navigate, search, filter, and retrieve the multilingual content from the library websites, various stakeholders need to do collective efforts [(Dubois 1979);(Yunker 2002); (Tixier 2005); (Becker 2007); (Diekema 2012)].

Libraries Websites Directory of HEC Recognized Universities of Pakistan Introduction The purpose of this directory is to provide the users a platform where they can get information about libraries of those universities which are recognized by Higher Education Commission of Pakistan. The directory is unique as it provides links to the HEC recognized universities and their libraries. Using this directory user can directly go to their desired university website or library website. Though this directory is limited in scope as it only provides links to the universities and libraries, therefore, it is suggested that user should visit the university or library webpage for specific information on the facilities and services they offer. The directory will not only be useful for the library professionals, but, will also help people searching for information resources for their research and students looking for admissions. The list of HEC recognized universities is taken from HEC’s website and links provided in the directory are active and working properly at the time we are publishing this directory.
