Item Access to Scholarly Literature in Higher Education Institutions Under Inflibnet Consortium(Inflibnet centre, 2007-02-08) Chand, Prem; Prakash, K; Satyabati, Thiyam; Chauhan, Suresh KThe escalating price of electronic journals, Indexing and abstracting databases along with traditionally published print subscriptions has forced library community to explore alternative means of subscription. The consortia based subscription is perhaps a solution for subscription of peerreviewed journals. In India, during last five years we have witnessed many consortia based subscription, ranging from subject specific to institution specific. The advancement of Internet and telecommunication has made it possible to subscribe network based resources to the users. The paper describes about the initiative taken by INFLIBNET in this direction and highlights the importance of current trends of usage statistics of networked resources of various publishers. Further the authors describe the patterns of electronic journal usage by the members of UGC-Infonet Digital library consortium during the last three years.Item Adoption Of Open Source Digital Library Software Packages: A Survey(INFLIBNET Centre, 2007-02-08) Jose, SanjoOpen source digital library packages are gaining popularity nowadays.

The credit goes to commercial or business organizations who have explored and implemented RFID to acquire, manage and provide security to their products or items. Information and Communication Technology has transformed the format of information and work culture of libraries. Still libraries are trying to address various problems like qualitative information management, speedy acquisition and dissemination of information and security of information products. This paper gives brief idea about the RFID, its importance in the library system, how it works and describes different components of the RFID technology. It also briefs about tentative budget to establish RFID technology in the library and finally its future in Indian libraries.Item Application of Rfid Technology in Libraries(Inflibnet centre, 2007-02-08) Sumi, Suman; Kumar, JatinderRadio Frequency Identification (RFID) is not a new system but the base of this was established way back in 1940s.

User Authentication can be achieved by the way of user name and password but it has very less level of impact to identify the proper user. For this reason the new mechanism like computer access is granted by checking a fingerprint. One can use Biometric Authentication Technique to apply in the library network to provide high level of security to identify the proper user. Biometric-based authentication applications include workstation and network access, application logon, data protection, and remote access to resources, transaction security. This paper discusses the application of Biometric authentication technologies in the field of library network by way of the library model which uses Biometric authentication in the form fingerprint scanning to identify the user and then gets the library resource.Item Biometric Authenticated Library Network Model for Information Sharing(INFLIBNET Centre, 2007-02-08) Gonsai, Atul M; Soni, Nilesh NTo provide the security to the library network or any other network, nowadays we have various newly developed mechanisms to provide security in the form of identifying the user and allowing specific access to the user.

Knowledge Management has become a new research area in comparison to other research areas such as data processing, information management, and network management. The innermost assignment of a library is to accumulate, systematize, preserve, and endow with access to knowledge and information. In fulfilling this gigantic mission, libraries preserve a valuable record of culture that can be passed down to succeeding generations. Libraries are an essential link in this communication between past, present, and future. Whether the cultural record is contained in books or in electronic formats, libraries ensure that the record is preserved, managed and made available for wide range of its usability.Item Data Mining Techniques for Dynamically Classifying and Analyzing Library Database(Inflibnet centre, 2007-02-08) Dwivedi, Roopesh Kumar; Bajpani, R PHuge amount of data and information is originating in the information era. Library automation can provide some relief, but data mining techniques have to be used for dynamically analyzing the library database and to make strategic decisions for managing the library in an efficient manner. Data mining is the exploration and analysis of large quantities of data in order to discover meaningful patterns and rules. Practical data mining can accomplish a limited set of tasks and only under limited circumstances. For library, it can play an important role by dynamically analyzing library database especially data related to the acquisition and circulation. No single data mining tool and technique is equally applicable. In commercial application, data mining is usually employed on very large database. This paper gives the clear picture of some of the most common association rule data mining techniques which can be applied to the library database and it outcomes.Item Data Mining Techniques for Dynamically Classifying and Analyzing Library Database(INFLIBNET Centre, 2007-02-08) Dwivedi, Roopesh Kumar; Bajpai, R PHuge amount of data and information is originating in the information era.
