Abstract
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has a very vast meaning and it has been
dominating each and every aspect of this universe. Due to ICT only whole world has been
become a global village and the other side ICT is accelerating information explosion, which
leads to the problem of bibliographical control. But there are some tools, which can help us
to manage these digital contents in a systematic order for use. The concept of digital library
is very much suitable for information management. Here, we have Greenstone and DSpace
Open Source Software for content creation, which are being used for maintaining an institutional
repository. After content creations, the objective should be accessing these contents globally,
for this purpose we need some broadband networks. In India, UGC-Infonet is the example
for such kind of country-wide network which is being responsible for improving the higher
educational system in the country with state-of-the-art technology. Now contents and
infrastructure with strong network are with us, UGC-Infonet: E-Journals Consortium is one of
the good examples which show that how we can facilitate the educational system across the
country through this kind of ICT system.
