The primary objective of libraries is to organize and provide access to information to its users.
Most common users of a library are scientists, academicians, technical personnel, students. It is
important to disseminate the research information arrived /available to the Users in addition to
archived data. It is also very important that users must be aware of the various services provided
by libraries. Library managers are required to send clear messages to the users that the business
of library is to provide required information in the shortest possible time. In this era of information
technology, attracting people to library is very difficult. Library Heads and staff should become proactive in providing and propagating the services and facilities available at the Library.Based on the interaction with many users, and analyzing their experiences, it is found that minimization
of reaction time in providing the required information to the users is essential. In this paper, services and the initiatives taken by Library known as “Knowledge Centre (KC)” of Aeronautical
Development Establishment (ADE) to bring awareness about the services provided by KC are
presented. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is effectively utilized by the Knowledge
Centre to achieve the objective of making available information required by Scientists in time
to help them to devote more time in project activities rather spending time in searching for information. |
