N. Phadke as a part of M.Phil programme at YCMOU. With the help of this Research Project libraries will be able to create or convert their collection into databases that adheres to required Bibliographic Standards. This in turn will facilitate resource sharing. Moreover, without any investments in costly softwares, libraries will be able to host their collection on intranet and internet with comprehensive and user friendly search features.
