| Abstract | Recently, risk management for the disasters such as earth quick, mountain explosion, seismic sea wave, in addition to ordinal disasters, such as typhoon, rain flooding and snow-slide has been seriously considered to keep the safety for the residents in many countries. More reliable and robust information systems than the conventional business or research oriented information networks must be constructed to normally and correctly perform their functions for residents even though serious disasters have happened. We propose a unified wide area disaster information network (WDN) using Internet based on the combination of both wired and wireless networks. The system requirements and their functions of WDN are precisely defined and the various types of information for residents are precisely defined. The prototype system of the disaster information system based on our suggested WDN was built to demonstrate and evaluate its functionality. Through the practical training in the local city for preparation of mountain explosion, we could confirm the usefulness of our suggested system. |

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.
