Greater benefits include lowering of cost, greater accessibility and better prospects especially for long term preservation of scholarly works. The paper mainly discuses on the importance and utility of the three concepts i.e. open access, open source and open standards in libraries emerging, which has helped to widened the gap in resource sharing, making it accessible in a far better way, limiting the expenses and above all standardizing which helps different systems to share their resources.
