About the Conference
Access to Digital Resources is of paramount importance to the researchers, 
academicians, students and other stack holders. Under the aegis of Indian 
Council of Agricultural Research, mega efforts are being made to strengthen 
Digital Library, create open access Institutional Repository, providing access 
to Digital Resources viz. commercially published journals and databases on the 
desktop of scientists, enhancing the web presence, eCourses development and 
hosting, crop specific knowledge portals and web services through World Bank 
funded National Agricultural Innovation Project. In this era of transition from 
information age to knowledge society, libraries have much greater challenges to 
face. It is not only the advancing technology, there is change in the medium 
from physical to virtual, concept of service delivery has changed from one way 
to two way interactive and more customized to user needs. The whole perception 
of library has changed from collection of books to a single window knowledge
bank. To be ready to migrate to knowledge society we need to sensitize the 
Indian National Agricultural Research System (NARS) comprising of State 
Agricultural Universities and  esearch Institutions in agriculture sector.
