Abstract: Information technology is an amalgam of some wonderful inventions of the 21th century in electronics and communication. During a very short span of time it has acquired an important place in almost all aspects of human life and particularly in the field of education. India has taken some bold steps to adapt and absorb the advances in information technology by constitution of national task force. Having missed the benefits of the industrial revolution as a result of more than two centuries of colonization, the country is overtaken by the information revolution. At the same time globalization having opened the doors wide to alien influence, the government has decided to take all steps to make India an IT super power by adoption of IT as a national program so as to enable personal and national growth. At the one end, some premier institutions are having access to all facilities in terms of educational technology such as multimedia system, LAN, WAN, and World Wide Web on the other hand a large number of university are still depending only on stereotyped lecture method in imparting knowledge. Therefore the existence of technology gap provides an opportunity to use IT supported education technologies for better delivery of education, easier access to a number of knowledge sources, sharing through networks and quality distance learning in management education. In this paper will cover the scope of web based learning, Technology of delivery system, Electronic Library, IT in Distance Education. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1201 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) allows an item, for example a library book, to be tracked and communicated with by radio waves. This technology is similar in concept to a cell phone. RFID is a broad term for technologies that use radio waves to automatically identify people or objects. There are several methods of identification, but the most common is to store a serial number that identifies a person or object, and perhaps other information, on a microchip that is attached to an antenna (the chip and the antenna together are called an RFID transponder or an RFID tag). The antenna enables the chip to transmit the identification information to a reader. The reader converts the radio waves reflected back from the RFID tag into digital information that can then be passed on to computers that can make use of it URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1176 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: Radio Frequency Identification Systems (RFID) are increasingly used in libraries for automation of repetitive work such as lending or returning of items. The ability of RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) to read multiple tags at once and ability to read without line of site reduces repetitive tasks. RFID enables more rapid updating of the library database enabling improved availability and circulation. Libraries, schools, the government, and private sector businesses are adopting radio frequency identification tags, or RFIDs - a technology that can be used to pinpoint the physical location of whatever item the tags are embedded in. The present paper is an attempt to describe major features of RFID technology, its benefits over barcode system, basic components and optional components with their effect on library system. Authors describe in the article, RFID is a boon for librarians as It further highlights the key functions of RFID in libraries like shelf charging –discharging, reliability, high speed inventorying, automated materials handling etc. and disadvantages like high cost, accessibility to compromise, reader collision, tag collision, and lack of standards. The paper also discusses the recent developments in RFID Systems as well as next generation use of RFID. The paper throws light on RFID initiatives in India. At the end some recommendations regarding the implementation of RFID System in libraries have been listed. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1112 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: RFID is a combination of radio -frequency-based technology and microchip technology and the information contained on microchips in the tags affixed to library materials is read using radio frequency technology. This technology is slowly merging the Library automation activities and services as an urge on the part of Library managers to improve the effectiveness of the library keeping in mind of the user’s consciousness towards information access and use. As this technology is new to the field of librarianship, author attempts to provide conceptual framework of relevance of RFID technology and its functioning, also it highlights the prospects of this technology.

Abstract: We are living in the information age. Information is the basic requirement for every human activity and it is important as food, air and water. Information in itself has no value, but its value lies in its communication and use. Information Literacy is the key competency for the Information age. Every person has a fundamental right to information literacy and information access. It is a necessity for all students, staff and faculty to be accomplished information users. Information literacy is key characteristics of life long learning and an essential element of higher education. Promoting information literacy skills at all levels of education is the collective responsibility of teachers, librarians and administrators. The paper discussed the concept of information literary and the role of LIS professionals in promoting electronic information literacy in Digital Libraries.

Abstract: The World Wide Web is a universal information space. As a medium for human exchange, it is becoming mature, but we are just beginning to build a space where automated agents can contribute –just beginning to build the Semantic Web. The RDF Schema design [RDF Schema] and XML Schema design [XML Schema] began independently but now a common model is needed where they fit together as interlocking pieces of the semantic web technology.

Abstract: Today 80 % of the content on the Web is in English, which is spoken by only 8% of the World population and 5% of Indian population. There is wealth of useful content in the various languages of the world other than English, which can be made available on the Internet. But, to date, for various reasons most of it is not yet available on the Internet. India itself has 18 officially recognized languages and scores of dialects. Although the medium of instruction for most of the higher education and research in India is English, substantial amount of literature by way of novels, textbooks, scholarly information are being generated in the other languages in the country. Many of the e-governance initiatives are in the respective state languages. In the past, support for different languages by the operating systems and the software packages were not very encouraging. However, with the advent of Unicode technology, operating systems and software packages are supporting almost all the major languages of the world that have scripts. In the work reported in this paper, we have explained the configuration changes that are needed for Eprints.org software to store multilingual content and to create a multilingual user interface.

Abstract: Library plays a pivotal role in ensuring the success of higher degree of research in the university environment. Information technology has revolutionized the information handling activities in the academic libraries during the past few years. The Information Society demands that all the relevant technologies; that are involved in information processing, consolidation, repackaging and retrieval be merged so as to evolve an integrated system; capable of providing diversified services. In this direction the automation of individual university libraries is a first step, rather a pre-requisite for the development of such an integrated university library and information system. In this research study an attempt has been made to study the automation and networking of universities in India and discuss the need for an integrated information system and the components of integrated information system.
