| Abstract | Summary form only given, as follows. In the United States today, an estimated 26 million children need some type of supervision while their parents go to work. There is an increasing need in our society for affordable, quality day care as well as for flexible work options in the work place. Although the need for assistance is felt by millions of families every day, child care is still viewed as a women's issue rather than a corporate or societal issue. Employers and the government have long overlooked the growing problem of family care for a variety of reasons. The most often cited reasons employers give for not incorporating some type of family care policy include prohibitive cost and liability concerns. At the root of the problem are several outdated stereotypes as to the need for such policies and the role of working women in society today. Put simply, many employers feel that family care policies are too costly and unnecessary. It is contended, however, that employers should view the costs of the much needed programs as sound investments in their highly skilled, technical personnel. The return on their investment will come in the way of increased productivity, higher employee morale, and increased loyalty to the company.<> |

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.
