| Abstract | The analysis of competition in services is particularly relevant, given the growing importance of this sector in modern economies and the segmentation still present in many tertiary markets. The objective of this paper is threefold. Firstly, to study the relationship between competition and European Union (EU) competition policy in services by analysing the influence exerted by aspects such as the share of services in the economy or by the market power of enterprises. Secondly, to present a set of sectoral cases under EU competition policy that illustrates the application of competition rules into major services sectors. Lastly, to identify the main challenges that competition policy faces with respect to services. Results show that competition in services markets varies widely by sector. The attention that EU competition policy pays to services should be explained by a wide set of factors (not just market size and market shares); to this end, this paper provides a detailed, sector-by-sector analysis. Several challenges are identified at both sectoral and at overall levels. We conclude that while there is no need for a new specific competition policy for services, more attention should be paid to increasing competition in some particular service markets. |

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.
