About the Workshops, Conferences and Seminars
With the rapid development of technological advances in recent times specially in the field of IT application in libraries in delivering information support services to the users, open source software such as Koha, NewGenLib, Evergreen, Greenstone, DSpace, Fedora, Eprints, VuFind, SubjectsPlus, Drupal and Joomla have been developed to render library services effectively. The main objective of the workshops is to provide theoretical foundation as well as hands-on training on some of these software to the library and information professionals working in India and abroad.
