Abstract
For the benefit of their users, libraries and information centers are preserving a significant amount of electronic data or information in the form of text, images, and numbers. All material is distributed via CD-ROM, DVD, Internet, etc. regardless to where the computer is located or how it is stored. The function of digital libraries in the modern information world, as well as new opportunities and challenges for library services. An electronic collection of physical or digital materials that may also be found elsewhere will be referred to as a digital library. These materials must be complete works that permit full cognitive and practical involvement from people. On the Internet, there are many resources that are accessible for free, and there are also many commercial resources that libraries can subscribe to for a set fee. Many academic libraries in India have consortia-based subscriptions to electronic tools. INFLIBNET is operating consortia like e-ShodhSindhu at University level and N-List Program at College level throughout the India. This paper will discuss the major initiatives/ program taken or organized by University Grant Commission to promote higher education.
