Sarwar Books, Newspapers, Magazines, Essays / Composition of different natures, sound films, videos etc which can be now available for digital collection evaluation, processing, preservation and make them understand by all types of readers in electronic form. Internet or CD ROM (can be read only) are in disk form. By the help of Digital Library (DL) one can learn and understand everything about history and knowledge of different culture- traditional & scientific knowledge of different languages and people of all the countries of the globe starting from the beginning of ancient people till today, all the people of the world (educated, uneducated, ignorant, deaf and dumb) in their houses or office while sitting or moving by a transport by the help of Laptop or mobile phones in their own language they can read, listen and visualize above all things to enrich their regarding knowledge.

Zabed This paper presents the results of a bibliometric analysis of nutrition literature of Bangladesh. A list of periodical articles on various aspects of nutrition research of Bangladesh published during 1972 - 2006 was compiled for analysis. A total of 636 articles by 998 authors were identified. The articles were published in 100 local and foreign journals. The five-yearly distribution of nutrition literature shows that there is a rapid growth of nutrition literature from 1987 onwards. Lotka’s law is found to be applicable to nutrition literature of Bangladesh. Bradford-Zipf distribution also appears to be applicable to the literature.

Zabed This paper reports on an empirical study of novices’ searching with a web-based IR interface. Two different novice groups took part in this study. The NP group took part in the initial performance experiment. The NLM group took part in two different tests. The first test measured their learnability with the interface after a brief “hands-on” training. The second test was run four weeks after the learning in order to assess their memorability of search skills. Novices’ performance across all experiments was measured in terms of time taken to complete search tasks, search terms used, error rates, and success of the tasks performed. Their subjective satisfaction with the interface was also measured at the end of all tests. The results of the study showed that novices could readily perform simple search tasks. Novices’ performance improved significantly when a brief “hands-on” training was provided. Their subjective satisfaction with the interface also improved after the training. However, novices’ memorability of search skill was poor. Their satisfaction with the interface also diminished during memorability test. The paper concludes with some principles of effective IR interface design for naive searchers.

Zabed; Munshi, Md. Nasir Uddin; Ahmed, Minhaj Uddin Examines the state of library computerisation in Bangladesh. Presents efforts made by different bodies and institutions in the country to automate their library operations and discloses problems faced by the libraries, which succeeded in automating some of their functions. Provides suggestions as to how libraries can adopt new computer technologies in order to improve their functions and services to users.
