Innovative Practices in Library Services: a Case Studyof Manipur University Library

Abstract

In this emerging knowledge society, there has been a sea change in the knowledge sectors. Library and Information centres and their similar organizations are also not an exception to this. A changing trend in the mode of procurement, storage, processing and particularly in the delivery of services of the libraries is observed in almost all the libraries of the modern age. Also there are libraries continuing the traditional services and attempting towards provision of new services. In the changing scenario, ICT (Information and Communication Technology) has been the most instrumental factor. In this backdrop, in our paper, taking Manipur University library, as a case study, an attempt has been made to highlight the innovative practices adopted in the mode of delivery of services.
