[email protected], [email protected] Cell No. +91 9824974994 Preface Internet has been a revolution in the world of information for a few decades now. It has become an important source of information for researchers and scholars worldwide. It is increasingly consulted as a warehouse of research activities. Information has become wider in present day research, covering electronic materials. University libraries are required to support teaching, learning and research by incorporating electronic information and professional skills. The transition of E-resources in academic libraries is gaining momentum in the opening years of the 21st century. The E-resources have become a very widely used format for academic library patrons. Every academic institution is purchasing e-resources for their users. Finally, the library E-resources are not useful unless the end-users perceive the values. The present study is an attempt to understand and explore the dynamics of the impact and use of E-resources in university libraries of Gujarat. The study has been divided into six chapters. The first chapter is the introduction which discusses e-resources, university libraries, objectives, research hypothesis, limitation and methodology. The second chapter discusses literature review in relevant sources. The third chapter is about the details of electronic resources i.e. advantage of e-resources, type of e- resources, opens source e-resource and Indian consortia. The fourth chapter presents the profile of the university libraries. The fifth chapter is about the analysis and interpretation of data of university libraries and also the library users. The sixth chapter is based on findings, suggestion and conclusion. I hope some useful points could be observed with this study to redefine the practice of E-resources in university libraries particularly in Gujarat. I am not a perfect professional and hence it is likely that some mistakes may occur which may kindly be excused. Vasantray A Chauhan CONTENTS 1. Introduction 1 2. Review of Literature 15 3.

It is the gateway to the development of theoretical knowledge, practical skills and technical knowhow in any discipline. Universities are the centers of higher education and research. The libraries attached to the Universities have to deal with the needs of the researchers in various disciplines. It is the responsibility of the University libraries to provide the information requirements of the researchers from time to time. Digital revolution promises to lead a new world. The success of the revolution depends on the construction of computer networks that can move huge quantities of bits reliably, and with the quality of service needed by each type of information. Information super highway is an international gathering of computer networks offers access to data through ftp and the World Wide Web and supports communication through electronic conferencing. Information has become wider in present day research, covering non-print materials. For research it is essential to use information in print as well as electronic information. Both are available in various sources crossing the boundaries of a specific library. Library and information centres are required to support teaching, learning and research by incorporating electronic and digital information and professional skills. With the increasing use of electronic resources, a changing pattern of usage is apparent. The ability to connect to library services through the 1 Internet and to access information services from other sources has reduced the capacity to characterize and categories users. The electronic resources have become a very widely used format of choice for academic library patrons as they offer today’s users many opportunities which were not available to their predecessors. The transition to electronic resources in academic libraries is gaining momentum in the opening years of the 21st century. Every academic institution is purchasing e- resources in record numbers for their users. Finally, the library electronic resource are not only useful its very effective sources of our stakeholder. E-Resources: In the academic scenario, over the years, e-resources have undergone a tremendous change assuming new dimensions influenced by the technology driven applications. The value of information lies in the ability to access and adapt to suit new applications and improve the efficiency of existing system. E-resources offer unique advantages like compact storage, fast delivery, interactivity and flexibility in transfer of information. These sources provide access to current information as these are updated regularly. These resources such as e- journals, E-books, E-database, Dictionaries, Encyclopaedias, OPACs etc. E-resource provides access to thousands of Journals and newspaper far more than the library could possible subscribe to in print format. Some E-resource provides archival facility to find such articles on particular subject from many different publications. Day by day more and more library resources become electronic and users also 2 prefer to access these e-resource. This changing scenario in library environment has arisen because of the needs and use of e-resources along with print version. E- resources come with new challenges before the library professional to give full text access to scholarly publication both in print and E-version to its end users. In Indian context, a novel initiatives by the INFLIBNET Centre, a programme by University Grants Commission to support learning, teaching and research

    Three Hundred Libraries Later: Evaluating the eGranary Digital Library and off-line information delivery in education Cliff Missen, MA The WiderNet Project School of Library and Information Science The University of Iowa About the eGranary Digital Library For most educators and students throughout the developing world, the Internet represents an expensive, unreliable, and oftentimes impossible method to access the existing treasure trove of on-line resources. Using off-line technologies to deliver Web information has the potential to be effective in many areas. Since 2002, the WiderNet Project, a service program in the School of Library and Information Science at the University of Iowa, has been delivering off-line copies of Web sites to schools in the developing world via the eGranary Digital Library -- "The Internet in a Box." Through a process of mirroring web sites (with permission) and delivering them to partner institutions in developing countries, this digital library delivers instant access to a wide variety of educational resources including video, audio, books, journals, and Web sites over local area networks. With a built-in catalog and search engine, the eGranary appears to the end user to be just like the Internet, only many times faster. Among the 1,200 Web sites included in the eGranary are Wikipedia, MIT’s OpenCourseware, the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control, the Gutenberg Project, and hundreds of open source journals. The eGranary is installed in more than 300 schools, clinics, and universities in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean.
