Abstract:
Knowledge Discovery or Data Mining is the partially automated process of extracting patterns,
usually from large data sets. Library and information services in schools, colleges, universities,
corporations and communities obtain information about their users, circulation history,
resources in the collection, and search patterns. Now a days many libraries have taken
advantage of these data as a way to improve customer service, manage acquisition budgets,
or influence strategic decision-making about uses of information in their organizations. The
paper tries give an overview on data sources and possible applications of data mining
techniques in the library.
