Information technology has played an important role in library and information science. Due to the developments in information technology, now, it is possible for libraries to provide several new services to the library users along with traditional services. Libraries are now able to provide information in print form as well as in digital form. During 1980s libraries started automating their bibliographic databases and during 1990s digital library projects were initiated. As on today, lot of developments have taken place in digitizing print media. At national and international level several big funding projects have been initiated to digitize valuable material available within the libraries for the preservation as well as for providing wider access to the collections through latest technologies.
