ABSTRACT : A digital is an organized collection of electronic resources. Digital library is a very complex and dynamic entity. It has brought phenomenal change in information collection, preservation and dissemination scene of the world. It is complex entity because it completely based on ICT systems. A distinction is often made between content that was created in a digital format, known as born-digital, and information that has been converted from a physical medium, e.g. paper, by digitizing. It should also be noted that not all electronic content is in digital data format. The term hybrid library is sometimes used for libraries that have both physical collections and electronic collections for example: American Memory is a digital library within the Library of Congress.

Library is the heart of any educational institutions. Nowadays there are two basic form of library, one is traditional library and another is digital library. Traditional library is the library to collection the information in print form like books, journals etc. and digital library is the library to collection information with associated services, where the information is stored in digital format like text, video, audio etc. and accessible over a network. According to Bala and Sagar(2014, 369p.) “Library as an institution has played an important role in the progress of civilization. In the modern age the library users need accurate, current and pinpointed information, and there expectation also high”. Due to lack of time no body have time to visit a library and search catalogue cards. Most of the users prefer the digital resources because these can be used anytime and by everyone over the Internet.
Last three decades have witnessed the information explosion. New ICT systems have increased the generation of more and more information and multiplied the knowledge bases. Every day more and more information is digitally born. The ordinary user is unable to cope with the Internet to select, choose, download, store and retrieve the right information they need from this information deluge. Yet the modern generation prefers digital format due to its advantages. For Librarian this is a great opportunity to concentrate on collection development of digital resources / e-resources and assist users by providing methods and techniques for better control of the digital resources. The principles of Library and Information Science couples with the modern day Information Technology facilitates several options for better management of Libraries, collection and services.
Ancient Gurus in ancient Gurukulas used to impart knowledge to their pupils through oralteaching. The Gurus themselves were treasure troves of knowledge, without the need to refer to
hard and soft copies, and online resources. The long-driventransition from paperless back topaperless, that is, from oral instruction through palm leaves through copper plates through virtualpaper through electronic to digital Libraries is as arduous as it is fascinating.
Library generally means a place where several types of resources are stored in an organised way and made accessible to the community for reference or borrowing. A library can store resources in various formats like the earliest form which used clay tablets in the Sumerian civilisation at 2600 B.C. or as written books in the classical Greece period in the 5th century. After Gutenberg it changed to printed form like books, periodicals, newspapers, maps, prints, documents, manuscripts etc. to modern formats which includes microforms, cassettes, videotapes, films, CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, e-books, audiobooks, databases and much more. Nowadays all library resources are available totally in the electronic mechanism
called digital content. Here we are going to discuss the creation, store, handle, and use the digital contents/objects.
NOMENCLATURE CHANGE FOR LIBRARY AND INFORMATION SCIENCE (LIS) SCHOOLS IN NIGE...IAEME Publication
This paper provides a synopsis of the evolutionary changes in the nomenclature of Library andInformation Science (LIS) programme in different countries and makes a case for LIS Schools in
Nigeria to adopt Information and Knowledge Management (IKM) as their new name in line with
current trends. It highlights the specific factors which make this transformation of LIS to IKM
imperative. Various institutions that changed the nomenclature of their LIS programme and thosethat prefer IKM were listed. The scope and content of an IKMprogramme were outlined. In
addition, the implications of IKM for interdisciplinary research and emerging opportunities in the
21st century were discussed. Finally, a proposal was made for a bachelor degree programme inpublishing and multimedia studies/technology, which is highly entrepreneurial in nature. The push
for other information-related disciplines was used to justify the argument for a distinct faculty forthese courses in the Nigerian tertiary education sector. This has implications for the change to IKM
as it underlines the strategic importance of thisrebrandeddiscipline in the educational systems ofthe knowledge economy.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

DIGITAL LIBRARIES: DEFINITIONS, ISSUES, AND CHALLENGES
RAKESH KUMAR MISHRA*
ABSTRACT
A digital library is nothing but the transformation from traditional library. The digital libraries concept come into existence in the 21st
century. Virtual
library, electronic library, library without walls and digital library are synonymous to each other. In this study, we have to discuss about the definition
of digital library, its challenges and issues, etc. Using digital library, access anyone, anytime, and in any form.
WHAT IS A DIGITAL LIBRARY
With the advancement of information and communication technology,
the rate of information explosion increases exponentially. Library
digitization is nothing but the conversion of physical media of the
library, i.e. books, periodical, articles, etc., into digital format (0 and
1 bit). Bits are the fundamental units of information in a computer
system. Flexibility is one of the chief assets of digital information. As
a result, libraries have been constantly facing the problems of space,
escalation in the cost of books and journals, budget shrinkage, inability
to provide multiple copies and most important is retrieval efficiency
of user being endangered for want of information. The digital library
contains digital representation of the object found in it. Digital library is
popularly viewed as an electronic version of a library. To some extent,
it simply means computerization of traditional libraries. According to
Larson, defined the digital library as global virtual library - the libraries
of thousands of “networked electronic libraries.” Networked electronic
libraries describe the collection of various library resources to the
network so that any user can access the resources anytime in anywhere.
According to the American Digital Library Federation, digital libraries
are organizations that provide the resources, including the specialized
staff,toselect,structure,offerintellectualaccessto,interpret,distribute,
preserve the integrity of, and ensure the persistence over time of
collection of digital works so that they are readily and economically
available for use by a defined community or set of communities.
The definition of a digital library can be given as a set of characteristics
are as follows. The digital library is a collection of services, collection
of information objects, supporting users with information objects,
organization and preservation of those objects, availability directly or
indirectly, and electronic/digital availability. The primary objective of
digital library is to improve the access as well as it also includes the cost
saving, preservation, keeping peace with technology and information
sharing.
A main benefit of digital library is to preserve rare and fragile objects
by enhancing their access to multiple users simultaneously. There are
several reasons for libraries to go for digitization, but the prime reason
for the digitization is the need of the user for convenient access to high
quality of information. Other important considerations for the digital
library are quality preservation, multiple referencing, wide area usage,
archival storage, and security measure.
Digital collection, associated technology, and its work/services are the
important characteristics of digital library. Stand-alone Digital Library,
Federated Digital Library, and Harvested Digital Library are mainly
three types of digital libraries are exist.
DIGITAL LIBRARIES CREATIONS
One of the largest issues in creating digital libraries will be the building
of digital collections. Digital imaging is an inter-linked system of
hardware, software, image database, and access sub-system with each
having their own components. Tools used for the digital library include
several core and peripherals systems like hardware (such as scanners,
computers, and data storage), software (image capturing and editing),
network (data transmission), and display/printing technologies. Some
of the important points to be considered in developing a digital library
are as follows:
a. Digital collection - There are essentially three methods of building
digital collections: (i) Digitization, converting paper and other media
inexistingcollectionstodigitalform(ii)Acquisitionoforiginaldigital
works created by publishers and scholars. Example items would
be electronic books, journals, and datasets. (iii) Access to external
materials not held in-house by providing pointers to websites, other
library collections, or publishers’ servers.
b. Access to external digital collection - The digital libraries can obtain
access permission to digital collection provided by external sources
like institutions, resources of the libraries, electronic journal through
on-line access like Elsevier, ACM, etc., which provides their journals
on-line through websites.
c. Access to digital information available on the web - WWW is the
repositories of information and one of the important services of the
internet. www.edoc.com, mel.library.mi.us, www.inflibnet.ac.in, etc.,
are the important portal sites or gateways that provide access to
electronics resources. In this respect, we can say that digital libraries
can provide access to electronic resources through library home
page.
d. Conversion of print to digital - Mainly scanning and use of OCR
programs and re-keying of data are the two important methods
for converting the print to digital resources. Some of the technical
requirements of the digital image processing include hardware
(computer, scanner, input/output devices), software (image
capturing, data compression/decompression), network (for
transferring information for resource sharing), and display
technologies. All the above components are the important machines
and tools needed for digitization.
VARIOUS MYTHS AND CHALLENGES OF DIGITAL LIBRARIES
Digital library: Myths
The internet is the digital library
Digital library may be networked or not. If it is networked, any users
can access the resources timely. In such a situation on can say that
Internet is the digital library.

The myth of a single digital library or one-window view of digital
library collections
Many users can access the resources of the digital libraries
simultaneously under the networked environment.
Digital libraries will provide more equitable access, anywhere,
anytime
In networked condition, digital libraries will provide more equitable
access for providing the right information to right user at right time.
Digital libraries will be cheaper than print libraries
As cost is concerned, resources available in digital collection is more
best than print libraries.
Digital library challenges
Creating “effective” digital libraries pose serious challenges for
existing and future technologies. The integration of digital media into
traditional collections will not be straightforward, like previous new
media (e.g., video audio tapes), because of the unique nature of digital
information, which is less fixed, easily copied, and remotely accessible
by multiple users simultaneously. Some specific challenges are resource
discovery, digital collection development, digital library administration,
copyright and licensing, etc., library of congress specified various
challenges for building an effective digital library, which are grouped as
broad categories as follows.
Building the resource
a. Develop improved technology for digitizing analog materials
b. Design search and retrieval tools that compensate for abbreviated
or incomplete cataloging or descriptive information
c. Design tools that facilitate the enhancement of cataloging or
descriptive information by incorporating the contributions of users.
Interoperability
a. Establish protocols and standards to facilitate the assembly of
distributed digital libraries.
Intellectual property
a. Address legal concerns associated with access, copying, and
dissemination of physical and digital materials.
Effective access
a. Integrate access to both digital and physical materials
b. Develop approaches that can present heterogeneous resources in a
coherent way
c. Make the national digital library useful to different communities of
users and for different purposes
b. Provide more effective and flexible tools for transforming digital
content to suit the need of end users.
Sustaining the resource
a. Develop economic models for the support of the national digital
library.
DIGITAL LIBRARY ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
Advantages
The advantages of digital libraries as a means of easily and rapidly
accessing books, archives, and images of various types are now
widely recognized by commercial interests and public bodies alike.
Traditional libraries are limited by storage space; digital libraries have
the potential to store much more information, simply because digital
information requires very little physical space to contain it. As such, the
cost of maintaining a digital library can be much lower than that of a
traditional library. An important advantage to digital conversion is to
highly increased accessibility to users. They also increase availability
to individuals who may not be traditional patrons of a library, due to
geographic location or organizational affiliation. Some advantages are
as follows:
• No physical boundary: The user of a digital library need not to go to
the library physically; people from worldwide can gain access to the
same information, as long as an Internet connection is available.
• Round the clock availability: A major advantage of digital libraries
is that people can gain access 24/7 to the information, i.e., users
can access the information anytime provided the proper network
connectivity.
• Multiple accesses: The same resources can be used simultaneously
by a number of institutions and patrons.
• Information retrieval: The user is able to use any search term (word,
phrase,title,name,andsubject)tosearchtheentirecollection.Digital
libraries can provide very user-friendly interfaces, giving clickable
access to its resources properly.
• Preservation and conservation: Digitization is not a long-term
preservation solution for physical collections but does succeed in
providing access copies for materials that would otherwise fall to
degradation from repeated use. Preservation and conservation of
data in the digital library are one of an important issue.
• Space: Whereas traditional libraries are limited by storage space,
digital libraries have the potential to store much more information;
simply because digital information requires very little physical space
to contain them and media storage technologies are more affordable
than ever before.
• Added value: Certain characteristics of objects, primarily the quality
of images, may be improved. Digitization can enhance legibility and
remove visible flaws such as stains and discoloration.
• Easily accessible.
Disadvantages
There are some disadvantages of digital libraries also, which are as
follows:
• User authentication for access to collections
• Digital preservation
• Equity of access
• Interface design
• Interoperability between systems and software
• Information organization
• Training and development.
CONCLUSION
Libraries around the world have been working on this daunting set
of challenges for several years now. The library/information center
has to overcome the inhibitions and look ahead for the betterment
of information services to the user community by successfully
adopting the digital technology - the need of the hour and keep pace
with world. It seems that the days may not far when the whole world
would have digital libraries interconnecting all libraries to meet the
academic and research needs within the short time. However, before
digital libraries took over the library and information network, the
country’s archives laws needs to be changed to meet the current
challenges in the areas of copyright protection of data and prevention
of corruption of data.
