(MEDLARS )
It is premier bibliographic database in life sciences with a concentration on biomedicine. Since
1879, the National Library of Medicine (NLM) has published Index Medicus, a monthly
guide to medical articles in thousands of journals.It was launched by the U.S. National Library
of Medicine (NLM) in 1964 as a computerised system known as MEDLARS.
• In 1971 an online version called MEDLINE
• The National Library of Medicine (NLM), on the campus of the National Institutes of Health in
Bethesda, Maryland, is the world's largest medical library. MEDLINE is the primary component
of PubMed Some of the data bases–MEDLINE, CATLINE,AVLINE, HISTLINE, SERLINE,
and SDILINE– are created and maintained solely by NLM.Some of the Databases of NLM
PubMed
PubMed comprises more than 21 million citations for biomedical literature from
MEDLINE, life science journals, and online books MeSH Browser
The MeSH Browser is an
online vocabulary look-up aid available for use with MeSH® (Medical Subject Headings). It is
designed to help quickly locate descriptors of possible interest and to show the hierarchy in
which descriptors of interest appear. Virtually complete MeSH records are available, including
the scope notes, annotations, entry vocabulary, history notes, allowable qualifiers, etc

Unicode ?
UNICODE stands for Universal character encoding, maintained by the Unicode Consortium.
This encoding standard provides the basis for processing,storage and interchange of text data in
any language in all modern software and ICT protocols.
It uses two bytes or 16 bits to code each character.
What is firewall
A system designed to prevent unauthorizedaccessto or from a privatenetwork. Firewalls can be
implemented in bothhardwareandsoftware, or a combination of both. Firewalls are frequently
used to prevent unauthorizedInternetusers from accessing private networks connected to the
Internet, especiallyintranets. All messages entering or leaving the intranet pass through the
firewall, which examines each message and blocks those that do not meet the
specifiedsecuritycriteria.
What is Webinar?
Webinar is a short for Web-based seminar, a presentation, lecture, workshop or seminar that is
transmitted over the Web. A key feature of a Webinar is its interactive elements -- the ability to
give, receive and discuss information. Contrast with Webcast, in which the data transmission is
one way and does not allow interaction between the presenter and the audience.
What is router?
NEETESH DUBEY
-A device that forwards data packets along networks. A router is connected to at least two
networks, commonly two LANs or WANs or a LAN and its ISP??s network. Routers are located
at gateways, the places where two or more networks connect. Routers use headers and
forwarding tables to determine the best path for forwarding the packets, and they use protocols
such as ICMP to communicate with each other and configure the best route between any two
hosts.
What is Delphi Technique ?
Delphi technique helps managers and decision makers to make better forecasts and advice. This
method recognises human judgments as legitimate and makes useful inputs in generating
forecasts and also that the judgment of a number of informed people is likely to be better than the
judgment of a single individual who may be misinformed or highly biased. Thus, the Delphi
technique is a way of allowing only those interactions to occur that are likely to improve the
quality of a forecast or decision. The Delphi Technique has been widely used to generate
forecasts in technology, education and other fields. It may also be possible to apply this
technique as an evaluation technique in case a situation demands.
Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT)
The Program (or Project) Evaluation and Review Technique, commonly abbreviated
PERT,is a statistical tool, used in project managementis designed to analyze and represent the
tasks involved in completing a given projectdeveloped by the United States Navy in the
1950sit is commonly used in conjunction with the critical path method or CPM.Program
Evaluation and Review Technique (code-named PERT) is applied as a decision-making tool
designed to save time in achieving end-objectives, and is of particular interest to those engaged
in research and development programs for which time is a critical factor.
Critical path method (CPM)
 The critical path method (CPM) is an algorithm for scheduling a set of project
activities It is an important tool for effective project management.The critical path
method (CPM) is a project modeling technique developed in the late 1950s by Morgan R.
Walker of DuPont and James E. Kelley, Jr. of Remington RandCPM calculates the
longest path of planned activities to the end of the project, and the earliest and latest that
each activity can start and finish without making the project longerIn project
management, a critical path is the sequence of project network activities which add upto
the longest overall duration

Shannon–Weaver model of communication has
been called the "mother of all models.
It embodies the concepts of information
source,message, transmitter, signal, channel, noise, receiver, In
1948 Claude Elwood Shannon published A Mathematical Theory of
Communication article in two parts in the July and October numbers of the Bell System
Technical Journal.[2 The book co-authored with Warren Weaver, The Mathematical Theory of
Communication, reprints Shannon's 1948 article and Weaver's popularization of it Shannon's
theory is used more literally and is referred to as Shannon theory, or information theory
Shannon's formula is where C is channel capacity measured in bits/second, W is the bandwidth
in Hz, S is the signal level in watts across the bandwidth W, and N is the noise power in watts in
the bandwidth W.
Electronic mail?
commonly known as email or e-mail An email message consists of three components, the
message envelope, the message header, and the message body.
What is WorldCat?
WorldCat is a global network of library content and services that uses the Web to let your
institution be more connected, more open and more productive. WorldCat is a union catalog

Background
The Project entitled “National Library and Information Services Infrastructure for Scholarly
Content (N-LIST)”, being jointly executed by the UGC-INFONET Digital Library Consortium,
INFLIBNET Centre and the INDEST-AICTE Consortium, IIT Delhi provides for i) crosssubscription to e-resources subscribed by the two Consortia, i.e. subscription to INDEST-AICTE
resources for universities and UGCINFONET resources for technical institutions; and ii) access
to selected e-resources to colleges. The N-LIST project provides access to e-resources to
students, researchers and faculty from colleges and other beneficiary institutions through
server(s) installed at the INFLIBNET Centre. The authorized users from colleges can now access
e-resources and download articles required by them directly from the publisher’s website once
they are duly authenticated as authorized users through servers deployed at the INFLIBNET
Centre.
The project has four distinct components, i.e. i ) to subscribe and provide access to selected
UGC-INFONET e-resources to technical institutions (IITs, IISc, IISERs and NITs) and monitor
its usage; ii) to subscribe and provide access to selected INDEST e-resources to selected
universities and monitor its usage; iii) to subscribe and provide access to selected e-resources to
6,000 Govt./ Govt.-aided colleges and monitor its usage; and iv) to act as a Monitoring Agency
for colleges and evaluate, promote, impart training and monitor all activities involved in the
process of providing effective and efficient access to e-resources to colleges. The INDEST and
UGC-INFONET are jointly responsible for activity listed at i) and ii) above. The INFLIBNET
Centre, Ahmedabad is responsible for activities listed at iii) and iv) above. The INFLIBNET
Centre is also responsible for developing and deploying appropriate software tools and
techniquesfor authenticating authorized users.

2. Current Status
As on April 22, 2010, a total number of 1,176 colleges have registered themselves with the NLIST programme including 659 Govt. / Govt.-aided colleges covered under the 12 B Act of the
UGC. Log-in ID and password for accessing e-resources has been sent to the authorized users
from these 659 colleges. Remaining colleges are being advised to join the initiative as N-LIST
Associates. All e-resources subscribed for colleges under the N-LIST Project are now accessible
to these 659 colleges through the N-List website.
3. Beneficiary Institutions The following four sets of institutions are benefitting from the NLIST Project:
i) Universities covered under Phase I of the UGC-INFONET Digital Library Consortium can
now access Web of Science.
ii) IITs, IISc, IISERs and selected NITs (i.e. core members of the INDEST-AICTE Consortium)
can now access selected e-resources namely Annual Reviews, Project Muse and Nature.
iii) 6,000 Govt. / Govt.-aided colleges covered under 12 B Act of the UGC can now access se
lected electronic resources including electronic journals, electronic books and bibliographic
databases. These resources include more than 2100 e-journals and 51,000 e-books.
iv) Colleges, not covered under the 12B Act of the UGC, can benefit from the N-LIST
Programmeby joining the programme as its Associate. These colleges will be required to pay a
