9783848431106: Application Of Information Technology In Major University Libraries: An analytical study of Bangladesh

Synopsis

This book makes an effort to provide an outline of library systems and services of selected major university libraries in Bangladesh. Application of information technology, availability of reading materials, use of application software, user services, housekeeping operations, networking accessibility of libraries, problems in computerization and networking in university libraries are discussed. The problems of application of IT in these libraries were the lack of fund, IT facilities, and skilled library professionals. The process requires adequate funding and skilled library professionals to implement the electronic systems and services in university libraries of Bangladesh. These libraries have progressed gradually in building a digital library despite the resource constraints. At final stage, I tried to provide a model plan applicable for university libraries in Bangladesh as well as for the academic libraries of Least Developing Countries (LDC). This book might be helpful for the students, practicing librarians, information professionals, teachers, faculties, and those who are interested to conduct research in the field of Information Science and Library Management.
