Abstract:
The organisation and utility of libraries have changed with time from mere storehouses of interested collection of documents to dynamic service centres, serving all professional and non-professionals in providing useful and need-based collection of documents. As a result of the knowledge explosion and information demand, the libraries have developed and are in the process of development, their own data bases. This paper addresses the basic problems that librarians and information managers faced during the process of generation, development and maintenance of these data bases.
