Abstract

Libraries, mostly in the developed countries form such consortia’s for resource sharing. Recently, they have included access to electronic journals, e-books etc. The consortia’s are usually non-profit ventures formed by the association of libraries. In India also some consortia’s like INFLIBNET, DELNET etc. have been formed. But they do not go beyond sharing bibliographic databases of books and periodicals. In this paper the feasibility of consortia approach for journals sharing by Indian libraries is discussed in brief.
