Dear All

Greetings from the GIPE Library!

I am pleased to announce that a National level workshop on 'Drupal 7:
An Open Source Content Management System' is organised from 26-28 Oct
2012 at 'Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics (GIPE), Pune.

As you know, the libraries have been trying to adopt new technologies
for providing new services to their users and to reach the wider
audience, librarians are sharing information through library websites.
To create and maintain library web site, they are either using Blog
based services or HTML to build complex library websites. To overcome
the problems of creating library websites using HTML, there are range
of open source content management software (CMS) available for
building complex websites. Drupal is one of the popular, heavily used
CMS tools which allow creating websites from simple pages to complex
pages without having much technical expertise. Drupal is used across
the world having large installation base as well as large user
community across globe. By using Drupal, libraries can easily publish,
manage and organize wide variety of contents. Drupal based library
websites allow to provide contents dynamically as well as
interactively by providing several web 2.0 based services.
