Unicode ?

UNICODE stands for Universal character encoding, maintained by the Unicode

Consortium.
This encoding standard provides the basis for processing,storage and interchange of text
data in any language in all modern software and ICT protocols.
It uses two bytes or 16 bits to code each character.

What is firewall

A system designed to prevent unauthorizedaccessto or from a privatenetwork. Firewalls

can be implemented in bothhardwareandsoftware, or a combination of both. Firewalls
are frequently used to prevent unauthorizedInternetusers from accessing private
networks connected to the Internet, especiallyintranets. All messages entering or leaving
the intranet pass through the firewall, which examines each message and blocks those
that do not meet the specifiedsecuritycriteria.

What is Webinar?

Webinar is a short for Web-based seminar, a presentation, lecture, workshop or seminar

that is transmitted over the Web. A key feature of a Webinar is its interactive elements --
the ability to give, receive and discuss information. Contrast with Webcast, in which the
data transmission is one way and does not allow interaction between the presenter and the
audience.

What is router?

-A device that forwards data packets along networks. A router is connected to at least
two networks, commonly two LANs or WANs or a LAN and its ISP??s network. Routers
are located at gateways, the places where two or more networks connect. Routers use
headers and forwarding tables to determine the best path for forwarding the packets, and
they use protocols such as ICMP to communicate with each other and configure the best
route between any two hosts.

What is Delphi Technique ?

Delphi technique helps managers and decision makers to make better forecasts and
advice. This method recognises human judgments as legitimate and makes useful inputs
in generating forecasts and also that the judgment of a number of informed people is
likely to be better than the judgment of a single individual who may be misinformed or
highly biased. Thus, the Delphi technique is a way of allowing only those interactions to

UGC NET: Mr. Jaydeep kumar Raikwar_Jay Page 47

UGC NET 2014

occur that are likely to improve the quality of a forecast or decision. The Delphi
Technique has been widely used to generate forecasts in technology, education and other
fields. It may also be possible to apply this technique as an evaluation technique in case a
situation demands.

Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT):

The Program (or Project) Evaluation and Review Technique, commonly

abbreviated PERT, is a statistical tool, used in project management is designed
to analyze and represent the tasks involved in completing a given
project developed by the United States Navy in the 1950s it is commonly used
in conjunction with the critical path method or CPM. Program Evaluation and
Review Technique (code-named PERT) is applied as a decision-making tool
designed to save time in achieving end-objectives, and is of particular interest to
those engaged in research and development programs for which time is a critical
factor.

Critical path method (CPM)

The critical path method (CPM) is an algorithm for scheduling a set of project activities It
is an important tool for effective project management. The critical path method (CPM) is a
project modeling technique developed in the late 1950s by Morgan R. Walker of DuPont and
James E. Kelley, Jr. of Remington Rand CPM calculates the longest path of planned
activities to the end of the project, and the earliest and latest that each activity can start and
finish without making the project longer In project management, a critical path is the
sequence of project network activities which add upto the longest overall duration

MARC (Machine readable cataloguing)

 ―MARC is a generic term applied to the universe to MARC formats”

 MARC was first developed by Henriette Avram
Evolution:
 1st conference on MARC by Library of Congress
 2nd conference on MARC by Library of Congress (1965)
 LC get a grand from CLR(Council of Library Resources) in 1965 to conduct a pilot
project on MARC
 3rd conference on MARC by LC in 1966. Official opening of the pilot project.
 Pilot project was known as “MARC I”.
 MARC I format restricted to books only.
 MARC I format entirely based on LC catalogue card
 So, BNB (with active participation with LC) makes some operational changes to make it
interchangeable format. As a resultMARC II was developed(1968)
 MARC II – capable for all forms of library material like books, monographs, serial, map,
music etc.
 MARC II was split into two formats
 BNB MARC (Later UK MARC)
 US MARC
 US MARC becomes US national standard in 1971 (ANSI Z39.2)
 & international standard in 1973 (ISO 2709)
 MARC II influenced the other countries to develop their own standard format which
followed the same structure but the tags were slightly different.
 As a result, certain amount of incompatibility exists among different countries
 To solve this problem, IFLA launched UNIMARC........ but eventually it failed.
Structure of MARC tapes
 LEADER
 Provides information about total length of record & type of record
 It is 24 characters (00-23) long
 RECORD DIRECTORY
It shows what variable fields are in the record and what their locations in the record are.
 It is of 12 characters long
 VARIABLE FIELD
 Two types : 1)variable control field (001-009) 2) variable data field
UNIMARC
 *by IFLA
 *1st version of UNIMARC (1977) is only for monographs & serial
 *UNIMARC follows the ISO communication format ISO-2709 (1981)

ISBDs (International Standard Bibliographic Description)

 The ISBDs main goal : offer consistency when sharing bibliographic information
 A stress was laid on the need of standardisation in bibliographic description
duringinternational conference on cataloguing principles (1961) held in Paris.
 To solve this problem
 ICME (International Meeting on Cataloguing Expert) was sponsored by IFLA & held
in Copenhagen (1969).
 Formed a committee
 Committee submitted report in 1971. Which is known as ISBD(M) . (M) means
Monograph
 In its application many ambiguities & lack of details were discovered
 To resolve this problem – IFLA conference (1973, Grenoble) was held
 After conference two documents were published
 ISBD(M) “M means Monograph”
 ISBD(S) “S means Serial”
 In 1975 ISBD(G) “General” was developed
 Serve as single frame work for all types of publications in all types of media
 ISBD(G) was later on incorporated into AACR II
 ISBD(G) acted just as some guiding principles
 It was not use as a working tool for the cataloguer
 So, IFLA brought out the following ISBDs on the basis of ISBD(G)
 ISBD(M)
 ISBD(S)
 ISBD(CM) ; Cartographic Material
 ISBD(OB) ; Old printed books

Indexing:

Cutter‟s Rules for Dictionary Catalogue: 1876

It was Charles Ammi Cutter who first gave a generalised set of rules for subject indexing in
his Rules for a Dictionary Catalogue (RDC) published in 1876.
Cutter never used the term ‗indexing‘; he used the term ‗cataloguing‘.

Kaiser‟s Systematic Indexing, 1911

·Developed by Julius Otto Kaiser
· It is a systematized alphabetical subject heading practice
· Kaiser was the first person who applied the idea of Cutter in indexing micro documents in the
library of Tariff Commission as its librarian
· He categorized the component terms into two fundamental categories: (1) Concrete and (2)
Process.
· Concrete refers to l Things, place and abstract terms, not signifying any action or process; e.g.
gold, India, Physics, etc.
· Process refers to
*Mode of treatment of the subject by the author
*An action or process described in the document
*An adjective related to the concrete as component of the subject. In short, Kaiser‘s achievements
regarding subject indexing are:
· categorization of composite terms through classificatory approach for the first time; a general
rule of order of precedence, i.e. the ‗process‘ term should follow the ‗concrete‘ term;definition of
those terms, of which ‗process‘ is identified properly, that is, he gave the characteristics of
‗process‘ by which it can be identified properly;· double entry system for a subject dealing with
place/locality; and elaborate system of references.

Chain Indexing:
Developed by Dr. S. R. Ranganathan
It is also called / known as ―chain procedure‖
It is a method of deriving alphabetical subject entries from the chain of successive subdivisions of
subjects needed to be indexed leading from general to specific level According to Ranganathan,
chain indexing is a ―procedure for deriving class index entry (i.e. subject index entry) which
refers from a class to its class number in a more or less mechanical way.‖
The term ‗chain‘ refers to a modulated sequence of subclasses or isolates

Relational Indexing:
Devised by J. E. L. Farradane in 1950
This indexing systems also known as the ―System of Relational Analysis”
Two or more isolates linked by relational operators
Relational operators are special symbols which link the isolates to show how they are related
and each operator is denoted by a slash and a special symbol having unique meaning
Farradane‘s marked improvement in the area of subject indexing was:
** analysis of relationship among terms;

** use of relational operators; and

** one to one relationship among analets.

Coates‟s Subject Indexing:

Developed by E. J. Coates

From the contributions of Cutter, Kaiser and Ranganathan, the concept of Term Significance was drawn

· Coates has developed the idea of Thing and Action like Kaiser‘s Concrete and Process

PRECIS (PREserved Context Index System):

· Developed by Dereck Austin in 1974

· an alternative procedure for deriving subject headings and generating index entries for British National
Bibliography (BNB) which since 1952, was following Chain Indexing.

· Syntax and Semantics of PRECIS

PRECIS consist of two inter-related sets of working procedures:

1. Syntactical

2. Semantic.

· The PRECIS is based on two principles

1. Principle of Context Dependency

2. Principle of One-to One Relationship

UGC NET: Mr. Jaydeep kumar Raikwar_Jay Page 57

 UGC NET 2014

·To achieve the principle of context-dependency, Two-Line-Three-Part entry structure is followed in

PRECIS
·Formats of PRECIS Index : There are three kinds of format in PRECIS:
1. Standard Format,

2. Inverted Format and

3. Predicate Transformation

COMPASS (Computer Aided Subject System):

In 1990, it was decided to revise UKMARC and to replace PRECIS by a more simplified system of subject
indexing As a result Computer Aided Subject System (COMPASS) was introduced for BNB from 1991.

POPSI (POstulate-based Permuted Subject Indexing):

Developed by Dr G Bhattacharyya, 1984

Uniterm indexing system:

 Martimer Taube devised the Uniterm indexing system in 1953

 to organise a collection of documents at the Armed Services Technical Information Agency

(ASTIA) of Atomic Energy Commission, Washington

 The system is based on concept coordination

 Uniterm indexing system had a number of distinctive characteristics:

1. Indexing by single words only;

2. Terms are extracted from the text of the document indexed;

3. No control over those terms;

4. Indexing, being reduced to word extraction, can be conducted by relatively

5. low-level personnel.

Optical Coincidence Card / Peek-a-boo

 Peek-a-boo is the trade name of the optical coincidence card.

 It is also called ‗Batten Cards‘.

Edge-Notched Card

AUTOMATIC INDEXING:

Keyword Indexing:

 The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) of USA is said to be the first organization to use the
machine-produced keywords index from Title since 1952

 use of computers in generating indexes of documents started from KWIC indexing

KWIC indexing:

 KWIC indexing developed by H.P. Luhn

 use of computers in generating indexes of documents started from KWIC indexing

 American Chemical Society established the value of KWIC after its adoption in 1961 for its
publication ‗Chemical Titles‘:

 This index was based on the keywords in the title of a paper and was produced with the help of
computers

UGC NET: Mr. Jaydeep kumar Raikwar_Jay Page 59

UGC NET 2014

Each entry in KWIC index consists of three parts:

a) Keywords: Significant or subject denoting words which serve as approach terms;

b) Context: Keywords selected also specify the particular context of the document
(i.e. usually the rest of the terms of the title).

c) Identification or Location Code

Variations of KWIC i.e KWOC and KWAC

1. KWOC (key-word out-of-context)

The KWOC is a variant of KWIC index. Here, each keyword is taken out and

printed separately in the left hand margin with the complete title in its normal

order printed to the right

2. KWAC (key-word Augmented-in-context) Index

** KWAC also stands for ‗key-word-and-context‘.

** KWAC is also called enriched KWIC or KWOC.

** CBAC (Chemical Biological Activities) of BIOSIS uses KWAC index

Other Versions of keyword index

KWWC (Key-Word-With-Context) Index

KEYTALPHA (Key-Term Alphabetical) Index : Keytalpha index is being used in the ‗Oceanic
Abstract‘.

WADEX (Word and Author Index). It is an improved version of KWIC. It is used in ‗Applied
Mechanics Review‘. AKWIC (Author and keyword in context) index is another version of
WADEX.index

What is RDA?

RDA stands for Resource Description and Access. It is the new cataloging standard, replacing
AACR2. RDA is based on the FRBR (functional requirements for bibliographic records) and FRAD
(functional requirements for authority data) concept models. FRBR and FRAD are models which are
internationally recognized as viable and valuable ways to conceptually structure and retrieve information.

How long has RDA been available and are catalogers using it now?
RDA has been widely disseminated in various drafts for a few years. Most catalogers are familiar with
some of the concepts in RDA, although few are expert at the new rules yet. This is partly because in the
United States RDA was not universally accepted upon release in June of 2010. Instead the Library of
Congress and 25 other libraries will test the new rules during a nine month period.
This test began this summer and will continue until April of 2011. At that time the Library of Congress
will make a recommendation as to whether they feel it is worth it to adopt RDA or not. Until the Library
of Congress commits to the new rules, most other U.S. libraries are continuing to catalog using AACR2
rules. However, there are 25 libraries assisting with the national test that are, of course, cataloging using
RDA. As of early Nov. 2010, there were approximately 3000 RDA records in OCLC.

How will RDA impact the library?

RDA itself is available in electronic form. Since the rules are completely restructured to follow a FRBR
concept, it can be difficult to locate the pertinent rules, even for experienced catalogers. Every cataloger
will have to be trained in the new rules as will most acquisitions staff. Circulation and reference staff will
also need to be aware of certain changes which will affect access. In short, you can expect your library to
have to be involved in a level of training equivalent to purchasing a new ILS.

Book:------
A collection of leaves of paper, parchment, vellum, cloth, or other material (written, printed, or
blank) fastened together along one edge, with or without a protective case or cover. The origin of the
word is uncertain. It may be derived from the Anglo-Saxon boc (plural bec) or from the Norse bok,
meaning "book" or "beech tree," possibly in reference to the wooden boards originally used in binding.
Also refers to a literary work or one of its volumes. Compare with

Monograph:-----------
To qualify for the special parcel post rate classified by the U.S. Postal Service as "media mail," a
publication must consist of 24 or more pages, at least 22 of which bear printing consisting primarily of
reading material or scholarly bibliography, with advertising limited to book announcements. UNESCO
defines a book as a nonperiodical literary publication consisting of 49 or more pages, covers excluded.
The ANSI standard includes publications of less than 49 pages that have hard covers. Abbreviated bk.

Also, a major division of a longer work (usually of fiction) that is further subdivided into chapters.
Usually numbered, such a division may or may not have its own title. Also refers to one of the divisions
of the Christian Bible, the first being Genesis.

In reference to a musical play, a volume containing the scenario and dialogue without the score.

Difference Between Bibliography and References:

1. Bibliography is listing all the materials that have been consulted while writing an essay or a book.
References, on the other hand, are those that have been referenced in your article or book.

2. Bibliography is not directly included in the text. References are those that are directly included in your
actual text.

3. Both bibliography and references are arranged alphabetically. But a Reference list can also be arranged
in Numeric style

BSO:

BSO, also termed SRC (Subject-field Reference Code), is a classification system developed within
the UNISIST-program for the purpose of interconnection of information systems. It is a disciplinary
organized system founded in 1972 as a UNESCO project in the UNISIST-program "World Science
Information System" in cooperation with FID. The idea behind BSO is related to the idea of networks and
probably represents the latest attempt to create a new universal classification. It is developed by the
Englishman Eric Coates in cooperation with others, including the Bliss Classification Association.

BSO was meant to be an international switching language, an overall information retrieval

language to transfer blocks of information in coarse subject groups between information systems applying
different indexing languages.

Coates (1979) states: "theoretically the switching operation requires nothing more than a neutral code
system in which concepts are represented". Dahlberg (1978) regards it as a positive step towards
standardization: "A standard classification assists library rationalization and national and international
cooperation on statistics, research and cataloguing".

Recall and Precision:

Recall

• The term recall refers to a measure of whether or not a particular item is retrieved or the extent to which
the retrieval of wanted items occur.

• Recall ratio is nothing but the proportion of relevant items retrieved and thus, it is a measure of the
completeness of a search in an index file

• The recall ratio has been variously called as hit rate, sensitivity, and conditional probability of a hit.

• The general formula for calculation of recall ratio

Number of relevant items retrieved * 100

Total number of relevant items in collection

Precision

• The term precision relates to the ability of an indexing system not to retrieve irrelevant items

• Precision ratio is nothing but the proportion of retrieved items that are relevant

• The precision ratio is sometimes referred to as a relevance ratio.

• Formula for calculation of precision ratio

Number of relevant items retrieved * 100

Total number of relevant items retrieved

FRBR: Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records:

Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records‖ (FRBR) was commissioned by IFLA and
published in 1998. It defines the core functions of a catalogue and bibliographic records. For that purpose
an abstract entity-relationship model of a catalogue is proposed

Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records is a conceptual entity-relationship

model developed by the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) that
relates user tasks of retrieval and access in online library catalogues and bibliographic databases from a
user‘s perspective. It represents a more holistic approach to retrieval and access as the relationships
between the entities provide links to navigate through the hierarchy of relationships. The model is
significant because it is separate from specific cataloguing standards such as AACR2 or International
Standard Bibliographic Description (ISBD).

ACRL:

The Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL), a division of the American Library
Association (ALA), is a professional association of academic librarians and other interested individuals. It
is dedicated to enhancing the ability of academic library and information professionals to serve the

Open Access Digital Libraries:

Digital Library of India (DLI) : Under this project, all the significant literary, artistic, and scientific
works of mankind are being digitally preserved and made freely available, in every corner of the world,
for our education, study, and appreciation and that of all our future generations.

Digital Library and E-Scolarship Portal : Vidyanidhi is India's premier Digital library initiative to
facilitate the creation, archiving and accessing of doctoral theses.Vidyanidhi is envisioned to evolve as a
national repository and a consortium for e-theses through participation and partnership with universities,
academic institutions and other stake holders. Vidyanidhi enhances access to Indian theses and enlarges
the reach and audience for Indian doctoral research works.

Persistent uniform resource locator (PURL:

Persistent uniform resource locator (PURL) is a uniform resource locator (URL) (i.e. location-
based uniform resource identifier or URI) that is used to redirect to the location of the requested web
resource. PURLs redirect HTTPclients using HTTP status codes. PURLs are used to curate the URL
resolution process, thus solving the problem of transitory URIs in location-based URI schemes like HTTP.
Technically the string resolution on PURL is like SEF URLresolution. he PURL concept was developed
at OCLC in 1995 and implemented using a forked pre-1.0 release of Apache HTTP Server,

National Mission on Libraries launched:

The National Knowledge Commission (NKC) in its Report to the Nation (2006-
2009) made ten major recommendations on libraries. In pursuance of this, a High Level
Committee to be called as National Mission on Libraries (NML) has been set up by the
Government of India
The composition of the Committee, terms of reference, tenure, management support and method
of operation has been elaborated in the Gazette of India (Part I Section I Number 20) issued by
the Government on 4th May 2012*. Raja Rammohun Roy Library Foundation (RRRLF), an
autonomous body under the Ministry of Culture will be the nodal agency for the National
Mission on Libraries for administrative, logistics, planning and budgeting purposes.

The first meeting of the NML* was held on 18th May, 2012. In this meeting certain decisions
have been taken for improvement in the library sector. These include: national census of
libraries, content creation and setting up of community information centres, up-gradation of the
existing public libraries, school and college libraries and use of school libraries as community
libraries, and improvement in library and information science education training and research
facilities.

NML has also decided to set up Working Groups with domain experts to prepare an
implementation plan. The Mission would be primarily an advisory body to endorse the plans and
programs prepared by the Working Groups. The following Working Groups have been set up by
the Mission.

1. Working Group on Up-gradation of the Existing Public Libraries, School/College libraries and use of
school libraries as community libraries. Chairman: Shri B S Baswan
2. Working Group on Library and Information Science Education, Training and Research
Facilities. Chairman: Prof. A R D Prasad
3. Working Group on the Setting up of the National Virtual Library, Networking and ICT applications in
libraries. Chairman: Dr. H K Kaul
4. Working Group on National Census of Libraries, Content Creation and Community Information
Centers. Chairman: Dr. Subbiah Arunachalam

Background
The NKC was set up by the Prime Minister with the challenging mandate to transform India
of the 21st century into a knowledge society. The objective of NKC was to advise the PM on
matters relating to knowledge creation, knowledge dissemination and knowledge application
within the diversity of the Indian scenario.

The Prime Minister, in this inaugural speech for the National Knowledge Commission on 2nd
August 2005, referring specially to libraries, said ―Public libraries are an extremely important
element of the foundation of a knowledge economy‖. NKC recognized that one major pervading
area that needs immediate and sustained attention is the Library and Information Service (LIS)
sector.

Metadata Basics:
The word "metadata" means "data about data". Metadata articulates a context for objects of
interest -- "resources" such as MP3 files, library books, or satellite images -- in the form of
"resource descriptions". As a tradition, resource description dates back to the earliest archives
and library catalogs. The modern "metadata" field that gave rise to Dublin Core and other recent
standards emerged with the Web revolution of the mid-1990s.

"Dublin" refers to Dublin, Ohio, USA where the work originated during the 1995
invitational OCLC/NCSA Metadata Workshop,[8] hosted by the Online Computer Library
Center (OCLC), a library consortium based in Dublin, and theNational Center for
Supercomputing Applications (NCSA). "Core" refers to the metadata terms as "broad and
generic being usable for describing a wide range of resources".[4] The semantics of Dublin Core
were established and are maintained by an international, cross-disciplinary group of
professionals from librarianship, computer science, text encoding, museums, and other related
fields of scholarship and practice.
The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI)[9] provides an open forum for the development
of interoperable online metadata standards for a broad range of purposes and of business models.
DCMI's activities include consensus-driven working groups, global conferences and workshops,
standards liaison, and educational efforts to promote widespread acceptance of metadata
standards and practices. In 2008, DCMI separated from OCLC and incorporated as an
independent entity.

Levels of interoperability"

From the perspective of the Dublin Core community, the metadata landscape is currently
characterized in terms of four "levels" of interoperability:

Level 1 (Shared term definitions). At Level 1, interoperability among metadata-using

applications is based on shared natural-language definitions. Within an application environment
such as an intranet, library system, or repository federation, participants agree what terms to use
in their metadata and how those terms are defined. Terms are hard-wired into applications using
specific implementation technologies, and interoperability with "the rest of the world" outside of
the implementation environment is generally not a priority. Most existing metadata applications
currently operate at this level of operability.

Level 2 (Formal semantic interoperability). At Level 2, interoperability among metadata-using

applications is based on the shared formal model provided by RDF, which is used to support
Linked Data. As defined in Wikipedia, the term "Linked Data" describes "a recommended best
practice for exposing, sharing, and connecting pieces of data, information, and knowledge on the
Semantic Web using URIs [Web addresses] and RDF." The properties and classes of DCMI
Metadata Terms have been defined for compatibility with Linked Data principles. Over the past
two years, vast amounts of commercial and public-sector data have been added to a growing
linked data cloud. Search engines such as Yahoo and content-management platforms such as

UGC NET: Mr. Jaydeep kumar Raikwar_Jay Page 79

UGC NET 2014

Drupal have implemented support for RDFa, a method for exposing linked data embedded in
Web pages. In effect, the founding idea of Dublin Core -- "simple metadata for resource
discovery" -- is being reinvented under the banner of "structured data for search engine
optimization". Of the four interoperability levels, this one appears to be growing the fastest.

Level 3 (Description Set syntactic interoperability) and Level 4 (Description Set Profile
interoperability). At Level 3, applications are compatible with the Linked Data model and, in
addition, share an abstract syntax for validatable metadata records, the "description set". At
Level 4, the records exchanged among metadata-using applications follow, in addition, a
common set of constraints, use the same vocabularies, and reflect a shared model of the world.
Levels 3 and 4 are more experimental than Levels 1 and 2 inasmuch they are not as well
supported with software tools, though the problems addressed in this work are expected to grow
in importance as producers of metadata records move their information into a linked-data
environment.

To the reader: If you are evaluating implementation options, it is good to start by defining your
requirements:

If the needed functionality can be met with a closed system, consider Level 1 solutions; DCMI
Metadata Terms provides a useful starter set of elements, many good tools are available, and
implementation is often straightforward.
If exchangeability of metadata with "the rest of the world" is important, consider Level 2. Month
by month, new platforms, tools, and data sources are coming online. Note that implementations
do not need to use URIs and RDF natively in order to be compatible with the linked data cloud.
With careful design and planning, just about any technology can be configured to export data in
RDF.
If your metadata needs to be designed both in accordance with Level 2 and with validatable
records, consider Levels 3 and 4 and join the community of pioneers on the DCMI Architecture
Forum mailing list.

Traditional Knowledge Digital Library :

Traditional Knowledge Digital Library is an Indian digital knowledge repository of
the traditional knowledge, especially about medicinal plants and formulations used in Indian
systems of medicine. Set up in 2001, as a collaboration between the Council of Scientific and
Industrial Research (CSIR) and Department of Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha
and Homoeopathy (Dept. of AYUSH), Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of
India,[1] the objective of the library is to protect the ancient and traditional knowledge of the
country from exploitation through bio-piracy and unethical patents, by documenting it
electronically and classifying it as per international patent classification systems. Apart from
that, the non-patent database also serves to foster modern research based on traditional
knowledge, as its simplifies access to this vast knowledge, be it of traditional remedies, or
practices.[2][3][4]
As of 2010, it had transcribed 148 books
on Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha and Yoga in public domain, into 34 million pages of information,
translated into five languages — English, German, French, Spanish and Japanese. Data on
80,000 formulations in Ayurveda, 1,000,000 in Unani and 12,000 in Siddha had already been put
in the TKDL. Plus it has also signed agreements with leading international patent offices such
as European Patent Office (EPO), United Kingdom Trademark & Patent Office (UKPTO) and
the United States Patent and Trademark Office to protect traditional knowledge from biopiracy,
by giving patent examiners at International Patent Offices access to the TKDL database for
patent search and examinations purposes.
