Free and equal information is the catch of the day, emphasis is laid today on promoting
information access through different medium to provide to right user at the right time.
While the information revolution has placed enormous pressure on libraries as they try to
find their way across the dramatic technological revolution. Information at present is the
source of production, transmission and consumption in the electronic age; and is
considered to be the back bone in the digital repositories. Every digital collection is
based on e-learning, which provide free access to all. In democratic world uneven
access has led to a growing concern about the rise of a digital divide between
information “ haves” and “have nots” based on race, income, family structure, education
and other factors.
