Comparative Analysis of Open Source Digital Library Softwares: A Case Study
<div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>The exponential growth in data generation and subsequent transformation into knowledge has created huge repositories of knowledge in the libraries. This has revolutionalised the methods and techniques to retrieve the relevant and useful information for the users. The growth of Information and communication technology (ICT) has facilitated into achieving this. In this paper, a study of three open-source digital library management software has been presented which collects and disseminates information for library-users. This analysis involves the study and comparison of related software documents and respective technical manuals. Based on the results of the comparison, the implementation of Digtial Library Management Software at DESIDOC has also been dealt in details. </span></p></div></div></div>
