Abstract: Digital libraries of electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs) offer an alternative to this waste of valuable academic scholarship and offer researchers and University Libraries in India opportunities to explore the possibilities electronic publishing trend in academic sector. The emergence of UGC Infonet, the aspiring and dream project of University Grants Commission, which also aims at Content Creation by Indian Academic Sector, will definitely boost this idea The idea of E- Theses and Dissertations (ETD) is coming up in International scenario, which can be easily located, readily accessible and delivered over the web.

Joshi, Govind (INFLIBNET Center, December 7, 2007)[more][less]
Abstract: Theses and dissertations are important knowledge resource created by graduate students in universities or institutes of higher learning. Due to lack of bibliographic control, and restricted access, these grey literature collect dust on shelves of libraries. Hence these are lost to prospective researchers and students to further their studies etc. Although many national and international efforts are being made to collect, collate and distribute theses and dissertations in many forms, none is comprehensive. The present trend is to prepare the theses in electronic form to facilitate easy online access to metadata, abstract and table of content or full text , the theses become OAIPMH compliant and can be searched on internet from anywhere. Depending upon access restrictions the theses can be harvested and stored in any institutional repositories. Indian scenario of theses and dissertations as knowledge resources, and maiden efforts by Tocklai Library in creation of Institutional Repository [IR] of all theses and dissertations in tea science and technology including other aspects are discussed. Proposes for a networked repository of TeaETDs among possible stakeholders in the plan. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1350 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: The JNU, New Delhi was started in 1969 and during the past thirty six years it has grown into a prestigious university of its kind in India today. Being a premier university in teaching and research programmes, it aimed to develop digital library for collecting the documents and manage networked information services for the benefits of faculty, students, research scholars and other academic community in their education and research. The University has more than thirty six centres, which comes under nine schools. Each year it publishes close to 1000 research papers and awards about 2312 degrees in various disciplines. To reveal the prestige of a university, Institutional Repository is the one and only way to make the whole world knowing the esteem of a university. With access to IR, the students will be able to find, read the literature reviews of their peers and global knowledge sharing is also possible. In this paper we discuss the future plans towards implementation of IR in JNU Central Library and also describe about some available IR software.

Abstract: Creation of research results and its publications is extremely important for further research in the same area. Research institutions are already making their best effort to digitize their research output and keeping it in an archive as repository for internal access and sharing among peer research. Open access model has paved way for publishing the research result on public access mode. Shodhganga is a National Repository of Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETDs) awarded in Indian Universities. Search and discovery of content in a semantic approach is paramount for a researcher to navigate to the proper content in ETDs. Creation of meta-data, organizing it in a logically linked relation is proposed for a semantic visual browser. Use of ontology for the explicit specification of conceptualization of the important meta-data elements by using latest semantic tools such as RDF/XML, OWL, Protégé, NeOn toolkit are discussed in this paper. A conceptual framework for ontologies based on the standard and advanced ontological model and its creation and implementation with reference to ETDs is also discussed.
