Access to knowledge is very crucial for social and economic development. Knowledge available should be equally accessible, whether in rural or urban areas. But because of distance and dispersion, information is not reaching the rural areas. But with the aid of information and communication technologies, it is possible to reach the rural communities and provide them with the need-based latest information. The paper discusses an attempt made to provide information to the rural communities through ICT.Keywords

The paper makes an attempt to study if gender has a role in the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), since it is strongly held by various studies that the social and cultural factors impede a woman's preference to scientific and technical subjects. With this background, the paper analyses to see if cultural, family and educational background can change this generalized notion.Keywords

Development of a country depends on the development of all its parts. Since major part of India comprises of rural areas, the development of the country is possible only with the development of the rural areas. With the conventional methods, it is difficult to develop the rural areas, since they are remote and scattered. Application of ICT could be the best method to improve the rural areas. The paper discusses some of the areas, where ICT could be applied and make the rural masses enlightened.Keywords

The convergence of computers, mass media and telecommunication technologies have created a high speed 'Network of Networks' called the Internet, a zeitgeist of the millennium connecting individuals, business, industry, government and non-government agencies, academic and research institutions of the world providing seamless universal connectivity. An attempt has been made to provide client server architecture model, the Internet, protocols setup in an academic and research environ, which reduce syntactic and semantic knowledge required to conduct effective online searches. It also mentions the precautions to be considered while designing planned network of pros and cons. The role of library professionals in augmenting the Internet optimization has been suggested to explore the goldmine of Internet resources and concludes with areas of research on Internet.Keywords
