1 CHAPTER - 5 STATUS OF OPAC AND WEB OPAC IN LAW UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES IN SOUTH INDIA 5.0. Introduction Library automation implies the application of computers and utilization of computer based products and services in the performance of different library operations and functions. Online Public Access Catalogues (OPACs) are widely used in electronic library catalogues giving a wealth of remote access to library information resources. OPAC is one of the milestones of library automation (Babu, 1998). OPAC has gradually developed more advanced systems which provide keyword facilities and Boolean search models. OPAC system has changed the traditional concept of information resources access in a significant way. It allows multi-dimensional searches providing as many access points as the data elements depending on the software used. Web OPAC usage is global and it can be accessed from anywhere and anytime. Web OPAC, html files provide hyperlinks to various subjects. National Law Universities are emerging institutions providing quality legal education. All law universities selected for the study have well equipped libraries. These libraries are meant to meet the information requirements of students, teaching staff and non teaching staff in their respective institutions. The main objective of these libraries is to collect, process, maintain and service a good number of text books, reference books, legal journals, audio-visual materials and other information sources. Besides, they provide good physical facilities and information services like Internet service, OPAC and web OPAC etc South Indian Law Universities There are six law universities of which, the National State Law University Hubli was established by the Government of Karnataka in It is the single largest federal law university in the country affiliating more than 87 law colleges spread over the entire state of Karnataka.

Three libraries have 20 records displayed per screen and the other one has 25 records displayed per screen. Table- 5.13: Number of Records Displayed Per Screen S/N Description Libraries Summary The investigation examined the status of OPAC and Web OPAC in Law University libraries selected for the study such as: NLSIU; KSLU; TNALU; NUALS; NALSAR and APUL. It was found that Wi Fi internet facility was available only in four Law University libraries NLSIU; KSLU; NAULS and NALSAR (Table 5.2). NLSIU library was the first to automate its collection as early as 1996, followed by NALSAR (2005); NUALS (2009) and the reaming three (KSLU; TNALU; and APUL) in the year 2012 (Table 5.3). All the libraries selected for the study have circulation module and OPAC search facility and Web OPAC in only four libraries (NLSIU; KSLU; TUALU; and NALSAR) (Table 5.4 and 5.5). All the libraries with OPAC and Web OPAC provide facility for searching books only four libraries provide periodical search facility (NLSIU; KSLU; NALSAR; and APUL) (Table 5.6).
