Automation Activities
The library
has started its automation activities in the year 2001. The library database
consists of all the books, back volumes of periodicals, project reports etc.
The database is connected to the campus-wide Local Area Network (LAN) for
the benefit of network users in all the departments. User can search the
database by Author, Title, Subject, Vendor, Publisher to know whether a
book/document is there in library or not its status. Library has replaced
its card catalogue with Online Public Access Catalogue (OPAC) terminals for
users. Two terminals near of the
Stack area and one is Reference section. Library is using Barcode technology
and biometric technology at the Circulation desk for issue and return transactions.
We are also maintaining the gate Register at the entrance of the
library to record number of users to the libarry.
Barcode Technology
We could strength our Circulation counters with bar code
technology equipment for accuracy and speeding up of operations.
