About:
The
Digital Library (DL) programme in the MLS was initiated in the year 1999. It
is usable by all employees of the DOHMS from within the campus or from home.
The DL focuses on: developing and managing digital collections and access
tools; providing electronic publishing capabilities and services for the
DOHMS patrons; providing and sustaining a comprehensive computing
environment for them; providing frameworks and systems to federate
distributed information resources; and serving as a catalyst for addressing
electronic information issues on DOHMS campus.
The
MLS services are divided into 5 major divisions, which are further separated
into subdivided facilities:
1

computing infrastructure of the Library;

tools;

managing the remote e-resources and Library related tools/departments;
