Before independence the National Library of India was known as- (1) Library of India (2) imperial Library (3) British Library (4) Indian Library La 2.2 3.3 44 Answer: 2 Explanation: It was Lord Curzon who first conceived the idea of opening a library for use of the public. He took note of two libraries with rich collections of book - the Imperial Library formed in 1891 by amalgamating a number of Secretariat libraries and the Calcutta Public Library. The Imperial Library (Indentures Validation) Act was passed in 1902 and the reconstituted Imperial Library was formally opened to the public at the Metcalfe Hall on the 30th January, 1903 by Lord Curzon with the intention that it should be a library of reference, a working place for students, and a repository of materials for the future historians of India, in which, so far as possible, every work written about India at any time can be seen and read. After Independence of India, the NATIONAL LIBRARY came into being in place of Imperial Library by the “Imperial Library (Change of Name) Act” in 1948.

Executive Committee: This committee is most powerful as it has full power over those ‘matters which are delegated to them by the library authority. So the decision of the library executive committee is final and mandatory. It need not report its decision to the library authority. 2. Advisory or Recommendatory Committee: It simply gives proposals which are subject to the approval of the library authority. If we go deep into the history of library committees we will also find some other types of library committees. These are as follows: & Self-Perpetuating Committee: These committees have the sole authority and independence as regards the control and management of the library under it. It does not have to report to any other higher body about its activities. 4 Adhoc Committee (Statutory Committee): It has the advantage of being independent of politics. It takes decision expeditiously. This committee is more or less independent. The Madras Public Library Act of 1948 provides the appointment of such a committee. This type of committee serves as library authority. 4 Nominated/Elected Committee: A large committee or an authority nominates or elects a smaller body for looking after certain bodies under it. It delegates certain power to such smaller bodies or committees. + Recommending Committee: It does not have any real power except that it simply gives certain proposals which are subject to the approval of the library authority. + Reporting Committee: This committee has sufficient powers to decide the matters within certain limit. Such decision needs no confirmation of the supreme authority, but the decision is to be reported to the latter for information.

Libraries have experienced dramatic changes in the last several years as a result of COVID and other extremal forces. As librarians look ahead to the future, here are a few key trends that will shape their needs going forward. The shift to digital services and delivery models is enhancing access but creating new challenges for libraries. The digitally is more convenient for many patrons, and the shift toward digital delivery is likely to continue as libraries look toward the IMTEYAZUL HAQUE, AMU, ALIGARH Page | 77 future. Yet, navigating the complex licensing (and tricky economies) of acquiring elecronic content and digitizing existing emergence of COVID-19 has greatly accelerated this trend, while also demonstrating the value in transitioning from print to digital resources. Accessing content and services materials isn't easy. For instance, libraries need an easy way to administer different licensing agreements and lending policies for various publishers and e-books. If they digitize their print collections, they'll need a way to limit the lending of digital files according to best practices in controlled digital lending {CDL) to avoid running afoul of copyright restrictions. Having the right technologies in place allows libraries to manage these complex processes effectively. Rising expectations are prompting libraries to improve the patron/experience. Today's customers. expect more personalized and immediate service than ever before. Consumers rising expectations are influencing how patrons want to be able to interact with library services as well. The shift to digital services and delivery models is one way that libraries are responding to changing expectations among patrons. But libraries are also looking for other ways. to improve the experience for their users, such as by making it easier to find and check out materials that match users' needs and interests. Users want to be able to find what they need quickly and easily from whatever environment they are using, whether that's a mobile device or even a learning management system if they're enrolledin a course. Users also want to receive services. in the format of their choice. The digital platforms that libraries use to manage their operations must be able to support these capabilities. As librarians are increasingly asked to do more with less, automation will play a key role in helping them. achieve this goal. Streamlining workflows using automation and artificial intelligence isn't just a cost-saving measure, it can also free up librarians to spend more time interacting with patrons and providing other services that demonstrate real value to stakeholders. The right technologies can also help librarians make better decisions about where to spend their limited resources, so they get the most impact from their investment. For instance, instead of acquiring books or digital materials that are likely to have a very narrow appeal, would it make more sense to partner with other libraries through a resource-sharing network? The use of a platform with built-in analytics can help librarians make smarter decisions when evaluating purchases or assessing the impact of programs and services, so they can serve the needs of stakeholders more effectively. The right digital platform can accelerate innovation and keep libraries one step ahead of whatever challenges the future might hold. 96. Which of the following factor poses a problem in acquiring digital content? 1. Emergence of COVID-19 IMTEYAZUL HAQUE, AMU, ALIGARH Page | 78 2. Complex licensing policies 3. Lack of preparedness of the patrons 4. inconvenience in using digital resources. Answer 97. The major hurdle in making available the digitized content of printed materials in the library 1. Copyright restrictions in lending digitized materials 2. Absence of right technologies 3. Changing expectations among patrons 4, Change in delivery models Answer 98. What are the expectations of the library users in the modern environment? 1. Users want to be able to find what they need quickly and easily 2. Users want to receive services in the format of their choice 3. Users expect the libraries to make use of appropriate technologies for the quick use of services 4. Allof the above Answer: 4 99, According to the passage, identify the correct statements from the following. i, Automation will play a key role in helping librarians to do more with less expenditure. ‘Automation can free up librarians to spend more time to interact with patrons. Automa rarians to acquire all printed and digital materials. iv. Automation will enable librarians to partner with other libraries through resource-sharing network.
