| Abstract | Most chronic users of time sharing computer systems are familiar with programs that allow the creation and manipulation of text files. Less often they have at their disposal programs that will format the document described by a text file, generating output such as a typist might produce. Rarely is there any mechanism by which graphics can be integrated with text. Lawrence Livermore Laboratory has a powerful, flexible and interactive computer-based documentation system that will format a source document description according to user specifications and incorporate illustrations to produce online documents, offset reproduction masters, 35mm color slides, movie titles, or viewgraphs. The flexibility of the system is greatly enhanced by the use of a device independent graphics library. Text may be plotted using the hardware characters specific to a device (when possible), or may be drawn as Hershey characters or polygonally outlined symbols. Illustrations may be defined in a simple 2d graphics language, and graphical output from application programs may also be incorporated directly into a document. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
