Digital Library of Theses and Dessertations

Abstract

Building of Digital Library largely depends on the nature of content and quality of digital resources. The digital library resources include electronic journals, electronic books, fulltext CD-ROM databases, etc. In research and academic institutions, theses, dissertations and research reports play a vital role as primary sources of information since they contain information of research value. Therefore, most of the research scholars refer to these documents regularly. To ensure easy and wider access to these documents, a digital library of theses and dissertations has been established in Tamilnadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University and connected with the Intranet of the university. The digital library provides access to the constituent units of the university including remote colleges. This paper discusses in brief about the establishment of the digital library of theses and dissertations.
