Abstract: Information is the basic necessity for all organizations. New discoveries and inventions have lead to information explosion. It is difficult to avoid redundancy. Several sources and methods of tapping knowledge are available. Knowledge map is one such tool that acts as the pointer to experts in specific knowledge domains. The tool can best be utilized by librarians to identify the domain experts for referral services and to know who knows what in different domains and save the time of the user. Here is a small initiative to bring forward the web-based, database driven Knowledge Map: Kmap-IISc. This Knowledge Map would act as a pointer to experts in specific knowledge domains in Indian Institute of Science (IISc). It has the well-developed content management tool for addition, modification and deletion of expert’s profiles. Search and browse for Kmap-IISc facilitates to retrieve the results of experts working in specific knowledge domains. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/230 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: vascoda (www.vascoda.de) is a new portal for scientific information – it is the nucleus of the German digital library. vascoda is a central access point for interdisciplinary searches ranging from humanities and social sciences to medical studies, engineering, and more. Access to all types of documents is made possible: born-digital as well as digitised and print materials can be obtained either free of charge or through pay-per-view options. The service already includes full-texts, link-collections, databases, subject-specific search engines and more. More than forty German institutions – mostly libraries and other information specialists are working together to offer users an actual one-stop-shop for all scientific information. The first release of vascoda was realized through the co-operation of the network of subjectbased Virtual Libraries sponsored by the DFG (German Research Society) as well as the Information Alliance and the Electronic Journals Library sponsored by the BMBF (Federal Ministry for Education and Research). Together, these institutions make it possible to combine the search for information and the access to full-text documents. Some of the journal articles and other documents can be accessed free of charge from anywhere in the world, the licence information for Germany is provided by the Electronic Journals Library and other partners. In this paper, the services of vascoda and examples of how to find quality information for different fields of study will be presented. In spring 2005, a number of new services will be provided. This paper will also look into some of the future developments of vascoda. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1538 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: Today on line education using computer-mediated communication to connect the learners and the instructors via the Internet (asynchronous learning networks) is more effective. Online queries are more in use than the traditional class tests. Tutorials conucted in traditional ways are all replaced by audio-visual conferences, e-mail, chat, listservers, news groups, simulations and guest chat on the Internet. Thus new learning modes and media is being initiated for enhancement of quality. The present paper discusses about the concept of digital library and building up of digital resources collection for effective E-Learning programmes. The importance of digitized grey literature collection to enhance the quality of e-learning programmes is highlighted. The digital exposition is a remedial answer by the little screen but extensive knowledge becomes positive and possible through a resourceful digital database.

Abstract: Database by definition refers to organized collection of data stored at a Central place. Appreciable technical advancements have taken place in the field of Data organization, Metadata and indexing for faster and accurate access to the information. However for applications where connectivity to the centralized database cannot be ensured and has requirement of access to specific set of the database, then the approach proposed by us in this paper can be quite useful. This paper discusses approach for information extraction and tailoring of information as per user requirements – Database Personalization. This paper also addresses the issues of database security and Intellectual Property Rights involved in creation of CDROM Databases. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/348 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: With the ongoing process of globalization and spurt in knowledge activities, the demand for information has been steadily growing in all the spheres of economy. The information systems and services that provide speed and convenience will survive and thrive as such systems and services will be preferred by users in a growing competitive world. The paper also discuses the impact of ICT on libraries and user communities besides talking about the electronic information services scenario and the challenges facing information users. Continuous developments in ICT have facilitated real-time access to global information, though paradoxically problems related to deluge of information and uninhibited access to information for user communities have also emerged. This paper highlights the Indian scenario and reports two kinds of user studies conducted by the author pertaining to the conventional information usage settings and electronic information environment. These studies depict that information usage in India in both these environments is generally tardy and points out the reasons for the same. The study reflects the fact that information collection also depends on the initiative of users. Presents two cases where information users have put in a herculean effort to collect information and maintain the same in the form of personal information files. The conclusion focuses on the considerable work and effort needed in the country for imparting literacy, computer literacy and information literacy for preparing and powering the masses for the construction of a knowledge based society.

Abstract: There are numerous challenges in organising a digital library (DL) and successfully get to the user the articles he/she wants. Some of the problems have already been addressed and a few more are yet to be solved. Various standards have already been developed in storage and retrieval of digital data which are described here. They range from the standards that cover Portable Document Format files through the standards that govern international cataloguing efforts to standards for searching. Others are still under development and are described in the state in which they are currently. In conclusion, standards are necessary for every aspect of the digital library. New standards are being developed by the formal international and national standards bodies and one set up especially for the purpose such as COUNTER has been highlighted.

Abstract: Today Digital Technology (computers and communication technology) is enabling information to be created, manipulated, disseminated, located and stored with increasing ease over the traditional one. On the other side Technological Obsolescence is the result of evolution of technology: as newer technology appears, older ones ceased to be used. Consequently, information, which relies on obsolete technology, becomes inaccessible. And preserving access to this (digital) information poses a significant challenge to the Library and Information Community. The present study highlights the digital preservation techniques and issues involved with it. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1356 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: Data transmitted through a network may be protected from unauthorized receivers by applying techniques based on cryptography. Only people who possess the appropriate private key can decrypt the received data using a public algorithm implemented either in hardware or in software. Fast implementation of encryption-decryption algorithms is highly desirable. Data-content manipulation can be performed for various legal or illegal purposes (compression, noise removal or malicious data modification). The modified product is not authentic with respect to the original one. The technology of multimedia services grows rapidly, and distributed access to such ser-vices through computer networks is a matter of urgency. However, network access does not protect the copyright of digital products that can be reproduced and used illegally. An efficient way to solve this problem is to use watermarks. A watermark is a secret code described by a digital signal carrying information about the copyright property of the product. The watermark is embedded in the digital data such that it is perceptually not visible. The copyright holder is the only person who can show the existence of his own watermark and to prove the origin of the product Reproduction of digital products is easy and inexpensive. In a network environment, like the Web, retransmission of copies all throughout the world is easy. The problem of protecting the intellectual property of digital products has been treated in the last few years with the introduction of the notion of watermarks.

Abstract: With the advent of Information Technology and its application in Libraries, concept of document management has been drastically changed to information management and again with the proliferation of information world wide coupled with internet, the entire scenario of information management has started its change to knowledge management, which is a recent origin term. Knowledge Management has become a new research area in comparison to other research areas such as data processing, information management, and network management. The innermost assignment of a library is to accumulate, systematize, preserve, and endow with access to knowledge and information. In fulfilling this gigantic mission, libraries preserve a valuable record of culture that can be passed down to succeeding generations. Libraries are an essential link in this communication between past, present, and future. Whether the cultural record is contained in books or in electronic formats, libraries ensure that the record is preserved, managed and made available for wide range of its usability.
