Abstract: One of the major factors to determine the knowledge of a nation is to understand the collection of books she holds. This study elucidates the contribution of Indian Universities towards the Union Catalogue IndCat. Indeed, 209 Indian Universities participated and 1,36,16,889 book records were submitted to IndCat server for retrieval of information for the public as on 18th June 2022. The number of universities and book records were rapidly growing in numbers as the automation of libraries is achieved. Hence, this study also includes the details about the type of Library Automation Software (LMS) used by universities for a better understanding regarding the development of libraries in technology. Further, this review provides zone-wise distribution of book records and LMS implementation in the respective university libraries. Thus, this study provides a summary about union catalogue of books submitted by participated Indian Universities and type of library software used by the universities towards automation of library and utilization of open source software
