Internet and Electronic Information Management
The number and types of information sources accessible through the Internet are ever increasing. Billions of documents including text, pictures, sound, and video are readily available for both scholarly and every-day uses. Even libraries and information centers with sizable budgets are having difficulties in coping with this increase. More developed tools and methods are needed to find, filter, organize and summarize electronic information sources. This paper is an overview of a wide variety of electronic information management issues ranging from infrastructure to the integration of information technology and content, from personalization of information services to “disintermediation”. It discusses the issues of description, organization, collection management, preservation and archiving of electronic information
The Personalization of Information Services
The Internet removes the temporal and spatial barriers and enables information professionals to offer information services to remote users 24 hours a day and seven days a week. Users experience “instant satisfaction” when they get “instant access” to networked information sources such as bibliographic databases, full-text electronic journals and electronic document delivery services. The access paradox of “single source-single user” for printed information sources can be overcome by providing remote access by multiple users to the networked copy of the same single source. Libraries are increasingly opting for collection management practices that are based on “just-in-time” approach rather than the “just-in-case” approach that has been prevalent over the years. Members of the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) in the United States spend as much as 25% of their total material acquisition budgets for networked information sources and services in recent years. This paper reviews some of the current trends in information management (ownership vs. access, disintermediation, and personalization) and emphasizes the importance of providing personalized information services along with a discussion of some of the issues involved

An investigative and evaluative study of factors affecting quality of agricultural and farm information services in Kerala
Agriculture is not only a country’s backbone of food, livelihood and ecological security systems, but is also the very soul of its sovereignty. In Kerala population density is high and land is scarce. To achieve sustainable advancement in quality of human life, meeting the domestic food requirement is to be given foremost priority in development plans. As the area of cultivation cannot be increased and growth of population cannot be controlled growth in food production is to be achieved by qualitative improvement in farming. This requires improvements in material inputs, farming techniques, storage technology and research. Effective integration of these factors is tied closely to adequate information flow, which can be ensured only by an efficient information system for agricultural education, research, extension and development. So evaluation and improvement of existing information services is very crucial for sustainable agricultural growth. The study evaluates the existing information resources, facilities, services, possibilities for resource sharing, accessibility of external sources, and the factors that affect the quality and efficiency of information services in agricultural sector. Coverage is limited to the State of Kerala. Sample consist 105 institutions of different levels, and information users consisting of 426 scientists and 220 farmers. Different sets of questionnaires and interview schedule were used to elicit information. The study found that agricultural research conducted at various institutions in the region at huge public expense has generated knowledge for improving production. Along with these huge collections of acquired content is also stored in the sector. But when a farmer, an extension worker, a scientist or an administrator needs information it is not easily accessible. The study found that agricultural sector fails to effectively bank on information resources available due to the lack of an information system and network. Recommends an Agricultural and Farm Information System for Kerala. Suggests a model plan for a computer communication network for resource sharing between the agricultural institutions in the State, which will also ensure, smooth flow of results of research down to the grassroots level to achieve maximum productivity in agriculture
