The libraries have transformed drastically from the storehouses of books to the powerhouses of knowledge and information since the middle of 20 century. The information and communication technology which is responsible for this revolution has drastically changed the organization management and functioning of modern libraries. The very existence of library is fully dependent on the satisfaction of users. Therefore libraries are now more concerned about the library customers their satisfaction the quality of libraries and information products and services and their proper marketing. A user is satisfied when the library is able to rise to his/her expectations or meet the actual needs. The library and information professionals have to properly understand the customers what they want how they want it and when they want the documents or information from a library. So the library has to consider the individuality of the customers responsiveness of staff and the relationship of the customer with the library very seriously as it effects the quality of library products and services heavily. Every library exists to satisfy the needs of the customers and aims to achieve hundred percent customer satisfaction however they may be some discrepancy between what libraries provide and what the customers actually need. This mismatch results from the failure of the library to meet customer needs and from the unrealistic expectations of customers. Therefore it is necessary to have some system through which the customer needs are heard and these must be used to improve the quality of the libraries. There are several methods or tools or techniques to measure control and improve the quality of a library. The quality can be perceived from the organizational level or user level or both but the perceptions of the library users is most important as the quality of a library has been defined as the gap between the expectations and perceptions of users about the library. The main objective of writing this book is to make the practicing librarians acquainted with the various methods of measuring the quality of libraries. This book will also be useful to researchers students and faculties of library and information science. 298 pp.

Information search pattern in electronic environment a case study. 5. Summary. Questionnaire. Select bibliography. Web references. Index. The information search patterns of the users are different depending upon their personal attributes and environment. The main aim of present study is to examine the information search pattern of the science doctoral students in the electronic environment. How researchers search information the type of information needed the services they used and their priorities in searching for information are highly relevant because they provide a basis for reorganizing libraries and information centers and reshaping their information support activities. The technological developments in recent years particularly in the area of computer telecommunication and storage technologies have significantly changed the way we generate collect organize present disseminate share and use information. The role of the librarian would change to accommodate their changing work environment. Librarians would need to be familiar with multi platform systems in order to serve and aid their clientele. Their knowledge of organizing and indexing information for the researcher will have intrinsic value especially for the end users when they search the system. This study will help libraries and other information managers in India and other developing countries to develop information and communication technology based library system where the doctoral students can access and search the latest electronic information sources. This will be of great help to plan and develop well automated information and communication technology enabled library system. 356 pp.

Modern libraries have become more and more aware of the revolutionary impact of developments in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) on their major activities. The application of ICT facilitates to provide pinpointed expeditious and exhaustive information at the right time to the right user. It provides opportunities for libraries and information centres to widen the scope of their resources and services and to increase their significance within the organization they serve. The increasing availability of information in machine readable form allows many information needs to be satisfied with decreased involvement of libraries and librarians. Though ICT has potential for modernizing the library activities there is a wide gal between what is told and what has been achieved. However the application of information and communication technologies in different types of libraries in India has gained much momentum. Although the use ICT in libraries in the country at present is quite low it is expected to go up in the coming years with continued reduction in the prices of the hardware and the software. The extent of use of ICT in libraries which are already using it will increase substantially. Libraries will use expert systems and artificial intelligence systems. Remote browsing of databases and tele delivery of documents will increase. Packet switched networks will be common. Use of CD ROM and DVD ROM will increase further. The World Wide Web is going to be more interactive and multidimensional incorporating multimedia presentations. It is in this context that two research studies on library computerisation have been conducted. This book which contains the core of the reports of these studies has two parts Part I Computerisation of University Libraries and Part II Application of Information Communication Technology in Libraries. This book will be of immense use to the practicing professional librarians for planning and executing similar studies and comparison of the findings. This will also be extremely helpful to the students the researchers and the faculty in library and information science who would like to carry out research studies on library computerisation and allied subjects. 562 pp.
