| Abstract | Telecommunications and information and communication technologies (ICT) are amongst the main drivers for the social and economic development of mankind and play a vital role in enhancing access to basic services in all sectors of life and in meeting the targets in millennium development goals. With almost half of the world¿s population having access to mobile cellular services, the increasing and sustained growth in Internet usage and broadband deployment, ITU, as the leading United Nations Agency in ICTs with a mission to connect the unconnected, is playing a leading role in the global coordination of activities and initiatives aimed at using ICTs to contribute towards solutions to a number of global issues. As the oldest UN agency, with a global presence and a membership that includes 191 countries and 700 sector members, ITU¿s mission is to bring the benefits of ICTs to the world¿s inhabitants. Global issues as the digital divide, cyber-insecurity, emergency telecommunications and climate change are high priorities in the agenda of ITU and central to its strategies and work programmes. In its unique role in the global management of the radio-frequency spectrum and satellite orbits for fixed, mobile, broadcasting, amateur, space research, ITU activities pave the way for the current and future landscapes of mobile and wireless communications worldwide. Through its global telecom forums and exhibitions, ITU brings together policy makers and industry leaders to showcase technologies and discuss global policies and strategies. |

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.
