Digital Library
ICT Enabled Services
- Access to web-based Resources: E-Journals, databases, E-Books are subscribed on all the engineering & Management streams. Subscription is based on IP address. Student / Faculty are providing a copy of the subscription of e- journals with login details.
- E-resource orientation programs: The library enlists all the resources on a single page termed as 'E-Resources' with links of subscribed e-Resources'. The participants have explained the databases of their subject and related areas. A presentation on Online Search Techniques is also prepared to explain the various search techniques, limiting or expanding search, common search platforms, etc. Each of the search techniques is supported by the live example on a particular database. Demonstrations are also made regarding how to register with a database, search for various concepts and publications, how to download the full-text article, how different search strategies work, etc.
