With the changing environment of librarianship, the focus on access to information, rather than
ownership, library professionals have manifold responsibilities. Shrinking local resources and
growth of resource sharing and document delivery through network environment, union catalogue
in one form or another is important features in today’s library world. INFLIBNET Centre has
taken the initiative of building union catalogue of academic libraries in India, which contains
bibliographic description of holding information for books, serials and theses in all subjects areas
held in university libraries in India. INFLIBNET union catalogue is traditional union catalogue,
in which records from multiple sources and formats are incorporated in to a single database.
Recently, entire database platform have been changed and developed new web based search
engine. The main feature of the new tool is that we tried to integrate different database on one
server, which contains 12 lakh unique records of books. |
