The first All India Public Library Conference was convened at the Gokhale Hall, Madras, on 14th November 1919 and the All India Public Libraries Association was founded on the same day. So, we celebrate the National Library Week 14 - 20 November to promote and popularize libraries, their resources and services!!!

Conversion of fulltext digital document archives in Winisis into greenstone -reg
by Rajankila 08 Nov '06

08 Nov '06

Dear Friends, I have keen interst in getting in touch with those who have done conversion of Winisis fulltext digital document archives into greenstone digital libraries, for learning more from them and experimenting more on it. Last week I could convert two fulltext digital collections -one with 752 downloaded web documents and another collection with 209 books and working papers - into greenstone digital library very easily with gsdl 2.70w. I think it is high time for librarinas to concentrate more on those friendly technologies for better information / knowledge management. If librarians keep away form these easy-to-do technologies now, they will be sidelined by others who may come forward to utilise those friendly technlogies.
