The first part of the paper compares top 95 universities for their quantitative and qualitative performance in research and concludes that quantity, not quality, is still the major strength of leading universities in India. Of top 95 universities, only 23 (24%) performed above average on quality indicator q2 (1.01 ~ 2.32, world average value is 1). In a comparative ranking study of top 30 universities, it was found that ranking positions of universities across four indicators were in disagreement varying with low to high margins. In a comparative study of publications shares across two rankings, the study found top 13 universities ranked on publications output (quantity) accounted for higher level publication share (65.4% of top 30 universities) compared to that (50.2...

The characteristics of electronic environment have an advantage over print environment, and have paved way for effecting changes in the traditional formats of information, emergence of new formats, as well as formulation of new models for dissemination of information. But this machine-dependent environment also has certain challenges such as internet speed, lack of training, high cost, etc. Those agricultural scientists who have used print sources during the major part of their research and professional career have to face difficulties even in respect of the basic aspects of this new information environment due to their being long accustomed to the old models of information and their apathetic attitude to the new environment. Imparting necessary training regarding information skills...

The present study aims at knowing the awareness and use of e-resources by agricultural scientists working in various ICAR research institutes in Himalayan region of India. The structured interview of 112 scientists revealed that Internet is highly used information resource by them. Most of the information sources are preferred in e-format. E-journals and online databases are frequently used e-resources by the agricultural scientists. Awareness and use of e-resources is more in young scientists than their senior colleagues.

In this regard, effort would be made to understand National Mission for Manuscripts (NMM) and National Archives of India (NAI) and their initiatives concerning digitization and e-records management in the recent years. Similar attempt are being made to understand the digitization and related efforts being made at Archival Cell, A.C. Joshi Library, Panjab University, Chandigarh as a case study of regional repository/university and how far it supports the national initiatives in this regard. Thus, overall, the focus would be to see and analyse capacity-building programmes in Indian archives.
