    Library Portals: A Report
    (INFLIBNET Centre, 2005-11-10) Maheta, Mahendra; Jani, Jay
    With the growing acceptance of web portals on university campuses, many librarians are considering building library portals to make their collections accessible to users who expect all knowledge to be obtainable with just a few clicks from inside a web browser. After all, the World Wide Web has become the marketplace for documents, goods, services, and ideas. For many people, especially students, if something is not on the web, it does not exist. This trend is especially challenging for libraries, which are the traditional keepers of knowledge but whose knowledge is largely kept in many millions of books and journalsnot on the web. The idea of a library portal is misdirected. While it is vital that libraries have a presence on university enterprise portals, libraries should build portal pages, portal channels, and portal cameos rather than entire library portals.

    Rfid Technology: A Changing Scenario and New Pilgrim for library
    (Inflibnet centre, 2007-02-08) Maheta, Mahendra; Jani, Jay
    There is nothing new in RFID for whom where inventory control and distribution work is more important than anything else. But it is defiantly new for the people working in the library and information science field. Ever more sophisticated functionality and new applications characterize this dynamic technology. All communities such as publishers, booksellers, libraries have a stake in identifying new standards that will support continued innovation and interoperability and allow maximum flexibility in developing new applications for both customers and vendors. In this paper authors have explored how RFID tags in libraries offer the possibility of increasing in productivity greatly and hold a promise of better service for the patrons.

    Wireless Computing With Bluetooth & Wi-Fi
    (INFLIBNET Center, 2006-02-02) Jani, Jay; Maheta, Mahendra
    This paper will cover few of the parts required for latest Wireless Technology in the field of Information Science as well as IT. Thanks to the work of the Specially Interested Group, a number of countries have opened the 2.4 GHz ISM band for Bluetooth technology and other wireless standards. Among other things achieved in 2004; contributed to changes of FCC Part 15.247 and ETSI EN 300 328 which cleared the path for adaptive frequency hopping and enhanced data rate in large areas of the world including the USA & Canada, Australia & New Zealand, essentially all countries in Europe, and many countries in South East Asia. Bluetooth wireless technology uses the 2.4 GHz ISM band, which is available and unlicensed in most countries. Members and staff collaborate to keep a current knowledge base of the regulatory prerequisites for Bluetooth enabled devices worldwide.
