Abstract: Transition form print format to electronic format has given rise to various issues in preserving the digital form. The problem of preservation is further complicated by the rapid obsolescence of the hardware and software required to interpret and present digital documents. The paper highlights on necessity in preserving the digital form, strategies related to preservation, technologies and guidelines for digital preservations. Rapid technological obsolescence combined with relatively short-lived media means that collection and preservation is a must in a digital era.

Abstract: In the Academic and research libraries, the long-term preservation and management of digital collections is the most important issue. In certain ways, digital materials are incredibly fragile, dependent for their continued utility upon technologies that undergo rapid and continual change. Keeping and managing the e-journal resources accessible for use by future generations will require conscious effort and continual investment. No library is self sufficient to purchase all the books, Journals and other library documents with in their library budget. So customers belonging to different academic institutions or university may purchase e-journals and sharing its cost through consortia. This paper explains the terms and definitions of Electronic Journals (e-journals), followed by the aims and objectives of the e-journal purchase and management. Also the issues in archiving and preserving the back issues of the e-journals, the initiatives taken in archiving them and the role of e-journal agents in purchasing and managing them are discussed. The purchase and management of e-journals through Consortia and the various consortium efforts taken in India with special reference to INDEST consortia also have been explained in this paper.

Abstract: Beca“knowledge” is a strategic resource that gives sustainable competitive advantage and helps to achieve long-term goals. Knowledge Management (KM) has recently received considerable attention in the computer information systems community and is continuously gaining interest by industry, enterprises and academia. knowledge management combines with information management play an important role for the success of transforming individual knowledge into organizational knowledge since we are moving into an era of “knowledge capitalism”. Higher education (HE) institutions are involved in knowledge creation, dissemination and learning, so they are in the knowledge business. Now-a-days, the increasing economic importance of knowledge redefines the links among education, work and learning in Higher Education institutions. This paper presents the key concepts of human-computer interaction in knowledge management, discusses their applicability to Higher Education and proposes the creation of learning organizations in HE institutions, as an innovative way to apply KM to HE.

Abstract: Library consortia for purchasing electronic journals became recognized as a vital part of academic information infrastructure at the research community. The biggest challenge that newcomers to the consortium world face is grasping the fact that standard setting is about giving away rights in technology. Leading institutions in North America and Western Europe take a variety of positive measures to promote consortium activities and formed unique consortia of many kinds. On the other hand, a consortium in India is still in a developing stage and struggle to solve problems they face. The factors that have led to the development of consortia are diverse among countries. This paper describes definitions, aim, organizations, internal structures, policies and other characteristics of the UGC-Infonet E-Journal Consortium which is one of the well known consortia for Higher Education in India under the UGC. It will also highlight the characteristics and issues faced by the consortia and the measures taken up to promote consortium activities. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1407 Files in this item: 1
