Abstract:
|
Agharkar Research Institute, Pune is a grant-in-aid research institute of the Department of Science and
Technology, Government of India. The current research activities encompass biological sciences and
focus on three broad areas: Animal Sciences, Microbial Sciences and Plant Sciences. The web site
www.aripune.org has been launched to present the scientific activities and achievements of the
institute. Information about ARI library is one of the important features of the web site. The present
paper attempts to discuss the planning and strategies adopted for the implementation of WEB OPAC
activities of the library. The discussion is based on actual experience gained during this process. We
advocate that it is not necessary to provide access to all the data or information through Internet.
However, it is always better to keep separate the locally and globally accessible information. We further
discuss the issue of WEB OPAC of reprints of papers published by the scientists of our institute. |
