Libraries have witnessed a great metamorphosis in recent years both in their collection development and in their service structure. Print medium is increasingly giving way to the electronic form of materials. Libraries are the storehouses of information and knowledge. Information is stored in many forms: print, audio and video, motion picture, slide microfilm/microfiche, full-text articles, trade reports, and hosts of other document sources. The present study examines the use of e-resources at Subharti Institute of Technology and Engineering. A questionnaire was prepared to elicit opinions from the users of e-resources. The responses were gathered from 150 users (100 faculty and 50 PG students from Engineering College).
