The National Workshop on “Effective Management of EResources
in Research Libraries" is the first of its kind organised by the Library &
Documentation Centre of ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Kochi.
Periodic trainings on newer technologies developed in the field of Library & Information
Sciences help library professionals to enhance their professional competencies that will
contribute largely to the output of the parent organization.
Digital repositories are the need of the hour where the Institute can showcase the
research findings. ICAR-CMFRI is a pioneer in developing Institute repository and the
open access repository of the Institute "eprints@cmfri" now stands 1st among ICAR
Institute repositories, 3rd among Indian repositories and 343rd among the world
repositories. Topics of current relevance towards development and modernisation of
research libraries are included in the Workshop which is expected to help the
participants to understand the possibilities and ways of supporting the research
activities of the parent Institution more effectively
