Emerging Nascent Technologies to Libraries for Harnessing the Excellence and Knowledge Growth:A Case Study of Engineering Colleges of Haryana
Subscribe/Renew Journal
Pick any library of decades 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, chances are that it looked to be very different in comparison to that present scenario. Although it was impossible to anticipate the when, what, and where of changes are required in the library. Nevertheless, the libraries had changed drastically by the succeeding decades and some new concepts raised i.e. Hybrid Library, Electronic Library, Digital Library and Virtual Library. Adoption of new technologies proved regulatory change in the milieu of library and its services. During transaction phases from traditional to digital, the library has undergone many upheavals but the necessity and inevitability of change enables them to see times of transition not as threats but as opportunities- opportunities for reinventing the library and its services which are proved mile stone in the history of the Libraries. Information and communication Technology is transforming the world by spreading information in nanoseconds. Library preserves information for users and disseminates the information to its users as and when they required but if the dissemination system is improper and inefficient, the preserved information is just like a haystack. However, information and communication technology in particular is changing the way of library retrieval and dissemination of its services. The e-resources on Internet are considering as electronic repository of information. The libraries play a fundamental role in selecting; evaluating, monitoring and providing seamless access to digital contents available on the web and others e.g. consortium, e-journals, and academic websites. To provide these contents seamlessly to users at their desktop, many promising steps have been taken by the government. New technologies promise to deliver the information to the users on their desktop seamlessly and immediately from any corner of the Cyber World. This study attempts to find out the level of awareness of Digital Library, Electronic Library and Mobile Library and their services.
