Abstract

With the cutting down of the cost in the production of information online, various initiatives have been undertaken. Library consortia have emerged as the most powerful media for accessing information online in university environment, where computer infrastructure is very high. But Library consortia may not be feasible for the colleges, where a low number of e-resources is required and computer infrastructure is comparatively poor. Hence, a new initiative N-List is started to give online access to them. This paper provides an overview on the N-List programme of the INFLIBNET.
