| Abstract | The ACCESS hardware is comprised of eight 200 megabyte moving head, removable disk pack disk drives. There are two microcomputers, a disk drive controller, two auxiliary memory banks, three sound data channels and a two channel independent high speed memory bus (DMA) which interconnects all of the preceding devices. There are various peripheral controllers for interfacing and controlling external equipment such as video tape record/playback units, magnetic tape recorder/players, sound amplifiers, level monitors, and SMPTE code conversion units. The CRT terminal (with keyboard), a 300 line per minute printer, video monitor, speakers, and the operations console which contains, switches, indicators, and sound modification controls are all located in the operations room which is about 60 feet from the computer room where all the other equipment is located. The computer electronics hardware is mechanized on two sided printed circuit cards (PCB) approximately 5 X 8 inches, with wire-wrapped integrated circuit sockets, and interface, connectors on both ends. The PCBs plug into standard 7 inch high, 19 inch wide card cages with combination wire-wrapped and printed circuit backplanes. Ribbon cables on the back edge of the PCBs interface between card cages and to external peripheral equipment. The card cages, disk drive controller, and power supplies are mounted in a standard cabinet 84 in H X 19 in W X 24 in D. |

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.
