of literature on the subject reveals that most of the studies are conducted in
western countries which may be grouped in three categories viz., i) user
studies, ii) studies relating to search failures, and iii) experiments with
methodological aspects. The need and importance of more such studies in the
Indian context, particularly in view of library network development in the
country, have been stressed.</span></span></span>
