Title: ELECTRONIC JOURNALS: MODALITIES FOR PROVIDING FREE ACCESS Authors: Halijwale, Sangeeta S.; Manjunath, G.K.; Pujar, S.M Abstract: Many publishers have started giving free online access to electronic journals against print subscription. Institutions having a good computer network, in other words Internet access, can benefit from the free offer. This paper attempts to describe the modalities involved in getting free access to such e-journals. The main focus is on the administrative procedures with due emphasis on the role of aggregators and access management. Page(s): 82-85

Title: LIBRARY DATABASES: DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT Authors: Singh, Prem Abstract: Definition, importance, advantages and disadvantages of the database approach have been discussed. There are four main sources - Shelf List, Books and other Reading material, Data Sheets and international utilities such as OCLC - for retroconversion of library's card catalogue and union catalogue of journals. The librarian can use anyone or a combination of them for data entry. Librarian has to decide the priority as to which part of library collection should be computerized first. Data entry can be done in-house or it can be outsourced. After weighing the economics and other pros and cons, the librarian can decide the mode of entry. The author of this paper found in-house data entry fastest, reliable and cheapest. Having created the database, its management is also essential. There is, therefore, a need for Database Administrator in each library. Page(s): 72-81

Title: INDO-GERMAN COLLABORATION IN S&T: AN ANALYSIS THROUGH Authors: Rao, M.K.D; Gupta, B.M Abstract: The paper looks into the Indo-German collaboration in S&T, through the co-authored publications during the period 1996-2000. The collaboration is under two broad streams, bilateral and multilateral. The study provides an analysis of co-authored papers by main fields and sub-fields and the impact of such collaboration in different fields of S&T. The paper identifies the major institutions involved in collaborative research in the two countries. The study reveals the extent of commonality of subject interest between the two countries. The analysis showed that the bilateral papers were maximum in physics followed by chemistry, biomedical research, etc. However the impact factor of bilateral papers was highest in biomedical research followed by physics, chemistry, etc. As many as 88 per cent of all bilateral papers have been reported in journals having impact factor less than 1.38, the average impact factor of all bilateral papers. Similar result of analysis is shown for the multilateral papers. Page(s): 64-71
