A lot of efforts have been takenin past few years to overcome this problem of financial crunch by resource sharing through consortia for university libraries. UGC-INFONET and INDEST-AICTE Consortium are two major initiatives for university library users. These revolutionary steps are providing scholarly resources including peer reviewed journals, databases, abstracts proceedings etc. These efforts must be a boon to university library users which will definitely boost the level of higher education system in our country. | Keywords : | | - e-resources
