This is true in academic research and publication process also. The technological tools available to access information resources, organizing resources, reference management, statistical analysis, report writing, etc., has made the research and publication process more interesting. Further, these technological tools act as supporting outfits in adhering to publication etiquettes and in managing academic integrity. However, the effective use of these web technological tools demands soft skills, research skills, resource management skills and exposure to IT skills. Keeping these requirements, this workshop is designed to introduce technological tools that supports research & publications activity. Objective: The workshop intends to bring together the faculty members and research community on a common platform to create an environment to move ahead in research & publication using technology. In this effort the workshop aims to introduce the technological tools, discuss on current trends and best practices in research & publications.
