UGC-Infonet, INDEST-AICTE and CSIR Consortia: Management and Use
The document discusses the need for library consortia in the context of the information explosion, diversity of user needs, financial constraints, and the impossibility of self-sufficiency for individual libraries. It describes the purpose and advantages of consortia for both libraries and publishers. Various consortia models used in India are presented, including centrally funded, open, closed, and shared budget models. The workflows and issues involved in managing consortia are outlined. Finally, the research problem and objectives of studying the use, impact, opportunities and issues related to e-consortia for different stakeholders are provided.
This document provides background information on library consortia, including a brief history and overview of their advantages and disadvantages. It discusses how consortia allow groups of libraries to cooperate in resource sharing, services, and processes. The document also provides recommendations to focus on digital resources and funding cooperation going forward.
The INDEST-AICTE Consortium was established in 2003 to provide discounted access to electronic resources for engineering and technology institutions in India, and has grown to include over 1200 member institutions; it negotiates with publishers to subscribe to resources and provide access for members, and also provides training on resource usage and encourages collaboration between member libraries.
Library consortia allow libraries to share resources and achieve objectives through cooperation. They are a method for sharing electronic resources among libraries with common goals. Consortia provide advantages like access to a large number of resources at lower costs. They also facilitate functions like cataloguing, consulting, collection development, purchasing, digitization and resource sharing. Consortia are easily formed without requiring capital and allow flexible membership.
This document discusses resource sharing and networking among libraries. It notes that no single library can satisfy all user needs, leading to the concept of library cooperation through activities like interlibrary loans. The advent of information and communication technologies has created new opportunities for greater cooperation through library consortia. Resource sharing involves reciprocity where members contribute and share resources, knowledge, data, facilities and information. Factors that help and hinder effective resource sharing are discussed.

It is a Class Room presentation for IPP Course Work Lecture prepared for Department of Library and Information Science, Assam University, Silchar for its first batch IPP Course Work Students. It was delivered in last semester (Jan-June 2013)
This document introduces electronic journals and how to locate them using the library's resources. It provides an overview of the types of e-journals available, such as those purchased from publishers or available through databases. Statistics on the library's e-journal holdings are given, and the various methods for finding e-journals through the library website, catalog, or by linking from databases are demonstrated with examples. The advantages and disadvantages of e-journals compared to print are also briefly discussed.
The document outlines a lesson plan for teaching students character words by having them identify their zodiac signs and the personality traits associated with their signs. It involves students determining which traits apply to themselves, sharing with peers about their signs, and collaborating in groups to choose words to describe people. The goal is for students to better understand and remember character words by relating them to their astrological signs and personalities.
There has been a growing importance of e-journals over the past 10 years or so, with a number of studies indicating that researchers welcome the enhanced and easy access. However relatively few studies have attempted to understand how e-journal usage affects researcher behaviour and how this impacts on research quality and productivity. http://www.rin.ac.uk/our-work/communicating-and-disseminating-research/e-journals-their-use-value-and-impact
This document provides an introduction to e-journals, including what they are, their advantages and disadvantages, why they should be used, and how to access them. The key points are:
- E-journals are scholarly publications published online in digital formats like PDF and HTML. They provide simultaneous global access and links to related research.
- Advantages include wider dissemination, access from anywhere, and the ability to access archives. Disadvantages include technical barriers and high acquisition costs.
- E-journals can be accessed through individual journal subscriptions, journal databases that aggregate titles, pay-per-view options on publisher sites, or open access models without fees like institutional repositories.
This document discusses e-journals, which are scholarly journals available in electronic format. It defines e-journals and discusses their nomenclature, access methods, key features, advantages, disadvantages, examples, and concludes that e-journals form an important part of scholarly research materials. The SNDT Women's Library in Mumbai subscribes to over 58 e-journals and databases to provide access to e-resources for its users.

Montana Academic Library Consortium PresentationPamela Benjamin
The document discusses library consortia in Montana. It notes that there are over 600 consortia worldwide and over 200 in the United States. In Montana, academic libraries collaborate through various consortia including the Montana Shared Catalog, NW Digital Archives, MontanaLibrary2Go, and OMNI Consortium. Consortia provide benefits like reducing costs, increasing resources available, and leveraging purchasing power. Challenges include funding cuts, maintaining autonomy for members, inefficiencies, and ensuring deep commitment to shared goals. The document outlines a four phase process for developing a new consortium: exploratory, planning, development, and operation/evaluation.
In the spring of 2015, Rebecca Kennison and Lisa Norberg launched the Open Access Network (OAN), a transformative solution for sustainable OA publishing and archiving in the humanities and social sciences. They spent the first six months talking to scholars, librarians, publishers, and academic administrators, then used their feedback to make extensive changes to the plan. Fundamental elements of the original model remain core to the OAN, including partnerships among key stakeholders and broad support across all tertiary institutions. This presentation will introduce the new model, offer insights on getting to Plan B and provide an update on implementation.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
