Correlational survey design was adopted for the study. The population of the study was 284 undergraduates and this was also used as sample. A validated research-made questionnaire with reliability range of 0.710.79 was used for data collection. The data collected were analyzed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation at 0.05 level of significance. The result of the analysis showed that acquisition of the following variables: Publishing skills (0.05 < 0.194) significantly relate to entrepreneurial interest while acquisition of printing skills (0.05 > 0.028) was not significantly related to entrepreneurial interest. It was recommended among others that Library and information science professional skills thought in library schools should be more practical and less theoretical.","PeriodicalId":14558,"journal":{"name":"IP Indian Journal of Library Science and Information Technology","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88886949","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In certain cases, significant differences are observed from Scopus or Web of Science data when Google Scholar is used. The coverage of these databases may be the reason for such a difference. In some cases, documents covered in Scopus or Web of Science have noteworthy increase in citations in Google Scholar. The present work made an endeavor to explore this fact by taking a case study of publications and citation data of Dr C.N.R.

The findings is based on the usage statistics of different category of users like faculty members, research scholars, students and staff members which had been registered at Allama Iqbal Library System for online and remote access to e-resources via EZproxy and RemoteXs softwares. The Library has been providing single window access to its digital content/e-resources through EZproxy software to its huge collection of online resources from 2010 and upto January, 2019. Since February, 2019, Library has shifted to the new and latest state-of-the-art RemoteXs software which acts as a gateway to accessing digital resources of Library from anywhere and anytime. The cost-effective cloud-based service model of RemoteXs has enabled our Allama Iqbal Library system in creating our own digital library portal with facilities to reach the target users in efficient manner. RemoteXs has also eased us from investing and marinating huge hardware infrastructure of e-mail servers, central servers, bandwidth costs, IP address registration etc. This indeed has helped the University to focus on core-academic research activities and use saved funds aptly. The findings show that users from all these categories were using e-resources; the awareness about e-resources encourages users to use such resources to the maximum; and the users are using personal computers, laptops, tablet computers, mobile devices more for accessing the information. The impact of e-resources was visible from the decrease in number of printed journals in comparison to the increase in number of electronic journals and online databases. The use of e-journals/e-databases has increased manifold. The printed material is being quickly replaced by the electronic resources due to its ease of access and availability.","PeriodicalId":14558,"journal":{"name":"IP Indian Journal of Library Science and Information Technology","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90277396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Books are the main sources of information but after the introduction of ICT patrons are collecting information from internet so that they do not required to visit the library. Today’s youth is more into the social networking. They spend more time on SNS. Initially SNS are use just to socialize with family and friends. But innovation also occur in use of social media. Corporates, business education institutes are started using SNS for marketing their sources. Similarly users started using SNS for different purpose like to study, group discussion, exchanging notes etc. In current research comparative study of use of SNS by two university’s library science students is studied. Data have been collected with the help of structured questionnaire and after analyzing the data it is found that users are using SNS for exchanging idea with friends but some user awareness program is also required for better utilization of the same. Keyword: Web-base Services, ICT, Facebook. Introduction Advancement in information and communication technology decreases the geographical distance between people. To exchange ideas, talk with friends and relatives nowadays it is not compulsory to meet them personally. Use of ICT helps us to talk with them through telephone, mobile device or through different social networking sites. The Question arises in our mind that what exactly social networking sites are? SNSs are defined by Body and Ellison (2008:11) as “web-based services that allow individuals to (1) construct a public or semi-public profile within a bounded system, (2) articulate a list of other users with whom they share a connection, and (3) view and traverse their list of connections and those made by others within the system” Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, WhatsApp, Instagram etc., are the example of social networking sites. Not only an individual but also many brands, companies, organizations, public institutions uses social networking sites for communicating their sources and services to the mass. Having public Facebook page, a Twitter account, YouTube channel is common nowadays. Libraries are now legging behind. Library and information word is always adapting new challenges. Libraries launch website in 1990, in 2000 it started providing chat and e-mail digital reference services. Today many libraries are having their website as well as Facebook page, blogs etc. The libraries which are disseminating their information sources and services by displaying notice on notice board are using these SNS services for the same. More youth are on social media, so it attracts their attention towards libraries. The current research aims to identify awareness of SNS among library science students, purpose of using SNS.
