Suggestions on Online journals for an Engineering College
by Mohan Kulkarni 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

Dear Library professionals, I am working as Librarian in an Engineering college where UG courses (Mechanical, IT, Computer, E&TC, Civil) are conducted. We were having IEL online journals subscription but instead of renewing the same, our management have asked to search for an option or a package where we can select journals from number of options available in different sources like ACM, ASME, ASCE, IEL, Springer, JGATE etc. According to them like this we can have balance between quantity, quality and finance. I have already made them aware of options available in INDEST consortia but they say that hundrerds and thousands of journals/articles are available there, but many of them are not of our use. There are students and staff , journals should be understandable by both of them. Many Journals/Articles are useful for researchers mainly. We want maximum output from what we invest. So if anybody have any suggestions on this, kindly suggest me. Thank you, -- From- Mohan Kulkarni Librarian kulkarnimohan(a)gmail.com -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
