NIA has initiated its digital library from April 2005. This library has been developed using an open source software i.e. Greenstone Digital Library Software (GSDL) and is installed on Windows 2000 Server. The activities of Digital Library are:
- Collection of presentations in a soft form, from all the programmes /seminars conducted in NIA and outside NIA including presentations made in MBA classes
- Classifying and segregating the presentations subject-wise / author wise / programme title-wise / programme number-wise for easy accessibility
- Sorting and converting them into secured Acrobat PDF format
All members of NIA can access the Digital Library through Intranet. Till date 370 programme documents and 30 MBA documents are uploaded. Uploading of further documents is in process.
The introduction of the NIA digital library has enhanced the effectiveness of the presentations made by various speakers by enabling them to obtain substantial relevant information on a wide range of topics.
A report has been published on NIA Digital Library under the DJRS series.
The provision of the Digital Library has evoked all round appreciation from the users of the Academy spurring on the team for making continuous improvements in it.
