Introduction
- The current state of information handling is sufficient to support and encourage the sharing of resources among libraries.
- The present decade has seen a greatly renewed interest in library cooperation and mutual benefits, prominently at national, Regional and international levels.
Resource Sharing
It mean utilizing information resources of one library for generating services of another library
Resource sharing is a mode of library operation whereby all or part of the library functions are shared in common among several libraries, as the goal of resource sharing is to maximize the availability of materials and services at the minimum expense.
Resource sharing encompasses information, bibliographical and textual database, cooperative acquisition, cataloguing, manpower, equipment, expertise and services. Resource sharing via network implies automation, data communication and effective cooperation.
Need for Resource Sharing
Multiplicity of documents in different subjects, languages and formats;
Diversity of user groups and their information needs; Access to existing information and services at less cost; Increase in Quantity/Cost; Space constraint; Budget constraint.
Information Resource Sharing Functions
Cooperative collection development among member libraries
Cooperative processing of information resources acquired through consortium
Access to all the e-resources available in member libraries
Organization for Resource Sharing
Digitization of valuable and rare collections of member libraries available in printed format and providing access to such materials to the members of all the libraries of the consortium
Developing common interface to catalogues, databases and e-collection by creating portals
Creating inter-operability among member systems, databases and services
