Uses and purpose of the information and communication technology and its impact on women library professionals in Bhopal

In addition to creating new possibilities for social and economic development, the information and communication technology (ICT) revolution has also created issues and hurdles. It has an impact on all facets of society and can shape and improve a wide range of developmental applications in the social, industrial, and agricultural sectors. ICT offers special chances for human development. ICT has been expanding inequities between and between countries, regions, gender, rich-poor, elite disregarded, and also within the many categories of women in various fields of endeavour. At the same time, ICT has been enlarging these gaps. Building up women's capacities is important so that they can participate in productive endeavours, institutional development, family and societal change, decision-making, political representation, trade and commerce, entrepreneurial growth, and social leadership. In order for women to own, manage, and control businesses in all sectors of the economy, including IT- based ones, there is a need to expand their prospects.
