Summary : The advances in ICTs have decisively changed the library and learning environment. On the one hand, ICTs have enhanced the variety and accessibility to library collections and services to break the barriers of location and time. On the other, the e-Learning has emerged as an additional medium for imparting education in many disciplines to overcome the constraint of physical capacity associated with the traditional classroom methods. For a vast developing country like India, this provides an immense opportunity to provide even higher education to remote places besides extending the library services through networking. Thanks to the recent
initiatives by the public and private institutions in this direction, a few web-based instruction courses are now running in the country. This paper reviews different aspects of e-Learning and emerging learning landscapes. It further presents the library scene and new opportunities for its participation in the e-Learning process. How these ICTs driven advances can contribute to the comprehensive learning process in India is highlighted.

FEEDBACK-India is always regarded as a poor country in the past with its low quality of living atmosphere and over population has been an obstacle for the realm to prosper. However, there are tonnes of educated citizens who have continuously working to produce a better living ambience to the people. ICT Learning is one of the gigantic project to enable and enhance peoplee from all stages to involve in the cyber world. In my opinion, this plan will allow India to take a major step forward towards a developed country.

  1. Hi, I love the blue atmosphere in your blog's new skin.. ;) Ei, how to put up the advertisement? I did try but failed.. (no skill) ah, so out of topic right now.. ok, so my opinion about this ICT thingy is that India had the most ICT intellects (if not mistaken, kinda heard it from Miss Ai Fen) and India is the country which hops from agriculture to ICT without going thru the process of industrial country first... Yup, if the ICT intellects do no end up to work in another country instead, then i think there is no doubt India is going to be a developed country.. I hope my comment is not out of topic, is it?
