Vidyanidhi is an information infrastructure, a digital library, a portal of resources, tools and facilities for doctoral research in India. 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.

Digital Library of India:


       Digital Library of India, part of the online services of the Indian Institute of ScienceBangalore and
 partner in the Million Book Project, provides free access to many books in English and Indian languages.
 The scanning of Indian language books has created an opportunity for developing Indian language optical character
 recognition (OCR) software.
Because of copyright laws, the texts are all out of copyright and therefore not sources for current information, 
but rather useful for history and background.


National Science Digital Library

The content creation and development for NSDL has gone through rigorous procedures to make available quality content for the students. Authored by eminent teachers and validated by renowned faculty in Indian universities and colleges, NSDL envisages to bring finest content to the students. The discussion forum has been provided for interactions amongst NSDL users.
