Abstract

In this current information technology age, use of computers for library housekeeping operations is not simply feasible, but inevitable. It has become a necessity than anything else. Many networks are now emerging in India. For participation and also the effective utilization of network resources, it is necessary for the participating members to automate their libraries. Although required hardware for library automation is now available at a reasonable cost; software packages are however not easily available. Aim of Study to how IIMs libraries have fully computerized there housekeeping Operations.
