Abstract

Traditionally, Libraries are considered as a place for storing and retrieving information from the available resources such as books, manuscripts, journals, and other sources of recorded information. The technological development is influencing to shift the libraries from traditional print resources to E-resources. Meanwhile the E- resources are not able to replace all the traditional print resources. The terms ‘Digital library’ and ‘Virtual library’ are used to refer the vast collection of information by which the people are able to access the information. The traditional print format resources are dominated and used in all the libraries, before the development of information communication technology. But after the development of information communication technology, the electronic resources are also use in the libraries by its users with some of its specialised features. Same time the e-resources are not able to completely replace the traditional print resources. Because the print resources, provide some convenience to it’s users. So, the academic libraries should able to maintain and provide both print and e-resources effectively.
