Publishing of electronic databases

Abstract

Presents briefly the impact of information technology on information management. Discuses the publication of electronic databases on CD‐ROM and the Internet by considering factors such as media of choice, cost factors, basic infrastructure, steps in publishing and their scenario in India, with products. Also, lists the differences between the two technologies. Concludes that India could use these media for publishing its databases not only for its own use but also to earn foreign exchange.
