Abstract

Electronic bulletin board systems are vital tools for computer-mediated communication among computer users. These are similar to the bulletin boards that are displayed in a library. However, these are operated electronically on computer networks. This article gives an overview about electronic BBSs, the infrastructure required to set up BBS, and their applications in general. An attempt has also been made to design an Indian Bulletin Board System for tibraries, a conceptual BBS on which different types of information could be organised and a number of services could be provided to the users.
