| | Library portal: A tool for webenabled information services
Author :Letha, M.M.
Source: DESIDOC Bulletin of Information Technology :26(5) ; 2006 ; pp.11-16
Abstract : In the modern digital information environment, a well-defined mechanism is needed to organise, store, and access information. A library portal is highly beneficial for this as well as for web-enabled information services. Most of the libraries are adding e-resources to their collection. The utility of these e-resources will be limited in the absence of a functional website that facilitates the users to exploit these to the maximum extent. Web portals are the tools that enhance access to the e-resources by providing visibility to these. This paper highlights the role of a library portal for various user services. An attempt has been made to explain the portal of Technical Information Resource Centre of Naval Physical and Oceanographic Laboratory of Defene Research and Development Organisation and the services provided through this portal.

| | Developing a customer focus approach to marketing of library and information services
Author :Gupta, Dinesh K.;Jambekar, Ashok

Abstract : Philosophically, users are the central entity in all types of libraries. The characteristics of the user body make up an essential and indeed central element in the development of library services. In ways that are now familiar from service industry contexts, we need to incorporate elements of client-or customer-centeredness in our approaches to serve users. Users also expect recognition, attention, and appreciation for their individual needs and have desire for self-expression. In such environment, the library system triumphs, which has more customer-focus approach in serving and meeting these needs and the library becomes market driven in the real sense. The customer-focus organisations accept that marketing issue is philosophical and also a strategic one. They are concentrating on developing customer orientation. Their focus is on distinctive competencies, value delivery, customer-defined quality, relationship management, and a customer-focused organisational culture. In the present paper an attempt has been made to clarify, what customer-focus approach is all about?; how quality, customer service and marketing are closely related to each other in customer-focus approach?; and how customer-focused culture can be developed in library and information centres?
