Abstract: With the changing environment of librarianship, the focus on access to information, rather than ownership, library professionals have manifold responsibilities. Shrinking local resources and growth of resource sharing and document delivery through network environment, union catalogue in one form or another is important features in today’s library world. INFLIBNET Centre has taken the initiative of building union catalogue of academic libraries in India, which contains bibliographic description of holding information for books, serials and theses in all subjects areas held in university libraries in India. INFLIBNET union catalogue is traditional union catalogue, in which records from multiple sources and formats are incorporated in to a single database. Recently, entire database platform have been changed and developed new web based search engine. The main feature of the new tool is that we tried to integrate different database on one server, which contains 12 lakh unique records of books.

Abstract: It is an indisputable fact that the computer information revolution has fundamentally changed library services across the nation for the past decades. Two recent advancements of information technologies, in particular, had significant impact on Library services. First, the introduction of CD-ROM technology has provided library users powerful access to large databases. Second, the creation of electronic networks has made online remote information access a reality. With the introduction of CD-ROM had a powerful impact on the storage and retrieval of information. CD-ROMs have proved particularly effective for storing bibliographical references. What are the CD-ROM Databases, why we use them and why we don’t want to use them in academic libraries are discussed briefly. Types of databases are explained by illustration. Search features commonly available in four selected CD-ROM databases such as keyword search, phrase search, Boolean search etc are discussed briefly. The selected CD-ROM databases are Ulrich’s on disc from Directory, Ei Compendex Bibliographic database, and Emerald full-text database of journal article. Some of the general issues related to the searching and retrieval of information from CD-ROM databases are briefly discussed. Some common points have been identified that the user must consider in order to quickly accessing information on CD-ROM databases in an effective way.

Abstract: As -and when the number of resources grows, complexity in organizing the static pages will also grow and it becomes very unfriendly to the end-users. In this situation one may have to think about database driven WebPages that would help the end users to interact with the stored information to retrieve the required information. The web databases have become very popular in the Internet world for organizing the Information resources. Library and Information centers can effectively utilize this web technoiogy for improving as well as delivering new services. This paper discusses the tools and the techniques of the 'Database Web' connectivity in brief. Description: This is only a Abstracts URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/447 Files in this item: 1
