Definition of information science
Information science is that discipline that investigates the properties and behavior of information, the forces governing the flow of information, and the means of processing information for optimum accessibility and usability.
It primarily concerned with the analysis, collection, classification, manipulation, storage, retrieval, movement, dissemination, and protection of information.
This includes the investigation of information representations in both natural and artificial systems, the use of codes for efficient message transmission, and the study of information processing devices and techniques such as computers and their programming systems.
It is an interdisciplinary science derived from and related to such fields as mathematics, logic, linguistics, psychology, computer technology, operations research, the graphic arts, communications, library science, management, and other similar fields. It has both a pure science component, which inquiries into the subject without regard to its application, and an applied science component, which develops services and products."

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

1.Introduction:
In the professional literature, the term consortia cover a great
range of cooperation situation and expressions according to the
different contexts and period they were formed and developed. It
has long been a precept of librarianship; however libraries have
not used it widely until about the 1980s. The prime reason of
establishing a library consortium is to share physical resources
between member organizations. Through consortia, libraries are
coordinating their purchasing to offer the best quality and
quantity of resources to their patrons at a lower cost and also to
make them available on users’ desktops. “Consortium purchasing
is assisting libraries to deal with the increasing pressure of
diminishing budgets, increasing user demand, and rising journal
cost”
3. No single library can satisfy all the information needs of its
users.
Due to the literature explosion, it is not possible to acquire all
the bibliographical materials at one place.
Individual libraries can not afford the cost of acquiring the
materials, hardware and software and manpower required to
maintain the modern information technology.
Gradual decrease in budgetary provision for the library and
information centres to provide various information services.
Government cuts on funding the information activities in view of
liberazation , globalization, and privatization of such activities.
Availability of access facilities for various types of databases,
electronic information increases the users demand for
information.
4. The UGC-Infonet Digital Library Consortium was formally
launched in December, 2003 by Honourable Dr. A P J Abdul
Kalam, the then President of India soon after providing the
Internet connectivity to the universities in the year 2003 under
the UGC-Infonet programme. The Consortium proved to be a
recipe to university libraries which have been discontinuing
subscription of scholarly journals because of "Serials Crisis".
The term "serials crisis" refers to exponential and continuing
increase in subscription cost of scholarly journals
5. Information and Library Network (INFLIBNET)
Centre is an Autonomous Inter-University Centre (IUC)
of University Grants Commission (UGC) involved in
creating infrastructure for sharing of library and
information resources and services among Academic
and Research Institutions. INFLIBNET works
collaboratively with Indian university libraries to shape
the future of the academic libraries in the evolving
information environment
6. There are following advantages of UGC-Infonet;
It becomes a vehicle for distance learning.
It is a tool for distribution of education material and
journals to remotest of areas.
It is a resource for researchers and scholars for tapping
most up to date information.
It forms a medium for collaboration among teachers
and students, not only within the country but all over
the world.
It is on Internet for university automation.
It established a channel for globalization of education.
7. Scaleable Architecture to grow from Universities to affiliated
Colleges.
Nation-wide terrestrial Backbone using Fiber optic links.
Integrated Satellite WAN supporting broadband and SCPCVAST technology.
Comprehensive Network Management System for overall
monitoring of the network, down to each and every device.
Linkage with other Academic and Research Networks all over
the world.
8. Data security and virus protection using Firewalls and
Intrusion Detection Systems.
Dedicate Data Center for Web hosting, e-Journals and Mail
Boxes.
Mirror sites Spread all over the country for content hosting.
Broadband Multimedia and Video Channels for Distance
Learning
9. Training
of manpower is one of the most critical resources
for successful implementation of high-tech programmes
like UGC-TNFONET.ERNET India has setup a modern
training laboratory to train Network System Managers and
users of UGC-Infonet. Technical staff from each of the
participating universities is trained to take maximum
advantage of the infrastructure. More than 140 computer
and library professionals from 129 universities have been
trained at ERNET India, New Delhi, Above 96 Library
Professionals from 63 universities have been trained for eresources management at INFLIBNET Center, Ahmedabad.
10.
For accessing these e-resources INFLIBNET had conducted
many awareness programmes in different universities. So far
one awareness programme in the use of e-resources has been
conducted in 36 universities across the country. Two days
National Seminar has been also conducted in five different
places-Varodara, Bangalore, Goa, Kolkata and Delhi.
11. These
e-resources covers almost all areas of learning,
including Arts, Humanities, Social Sciences, Physical
Sciences, Chemical Sciences, Life Sciences, Computer
Sciences, Mathematics and Statistics, etc. The programme
is wholly funded by the UGC and executed by the
INFLIBNET (Information and Library Network) Centre,
Ahmedabad.
The Consortium provides current as well as archival access
to more than 7000+ core and peer-reviewed journals and 10
bibliographic databases from 26 publishers and aggregators
in different disciplines. The programme has been
implemented in phased manner.
12.
Under the UGC-Infonet E-journal Consortia 50 universities
are provided free access to E-Journals in the first phase in
2004. In the second phase, 50 more universities were added to
the programme in the year 2005. So far 160 Universities out of
181 that come under the purview of UGC have been provided
differential access to subscribed e-resources.
13.
A small beginning under a bigger umbrella has been made in
right earnestness. INFLIBNET is probably the most ambitious
venture of its type in India, involving massive content
gathering, organizing and management. It also a well-thoughtout e-journal service with great potential to scholars and
libraries in the country. It is believed and hoped that
INFLIBNET will leverage on the initiative to come out with
relate services of use and importance
