| Abstract | Universal newborn screening for a range of mostly inherited metabolic and endocrine disorders, started in mid-1960ies, is a success story of preventive medicine. New technological advances particularly in the last 10-15 years have led to an expansion of newborn screening in many countries. This has allowed introduction of sometimes life-saving preventive measures in more children, but it has also become more obvious that screening may not be prudent for all conditions in which it is technically feasible. The present article provides criteria that have been used or discussed for the inclusion of 'new' disorders in newborn screening programs, and highlights exemplary metabolic disorders that illustrate imminent challenges. In order to secure long-term acceptance of universal newborn screening within the society, its aims and contents should be determined through a transparent decision finding process. This may best be achieved through the establishment of a representative newborn screening advisory board. |

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.
