What is an eLibrary?
eLibrary is an information portal providing a single point of access to all electronic resources held by the Library at the University. By using the portal, you can either go directly to a resource, or to search selected resources simultaneously, with the option to save your favourite resources and search results. All the resources available via the eLibrary have been selected because they are known to be accurate and reliable. The button within each record will link you to the full text article, wherever available.
 
Brief us about your presence in various geographies in India.
 
We have our corporate office in New Delhi and branch offices in Mumbai, Lucknow, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Chennai and Bangalore. The team handling a particular region does the promotion of our products and services directly to the end-customers. While for our overseas expansion we have recently appointed our distributors in Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei, now the next step will be to appoint distributors in the Middle East and Thailand.
 
What kind of growth you are experiencing?
The kind of growth we have received no other company in this industry has achieved this kind of growth in the last three years. We are aiming to capture 5% of the total market in the year 2008-09, 10% in 2009-10 and 15% in 2010-11.
 
How would you like to differentiate yourself from your competitors?
As we are operating in a very niche market segment, i.e. large academic and research libraries, we really do not have much competition as most of the products are first launched by our company only and in most of the cases we are the only company in India to offer these software and search solution. The current market that is available for new entrants for the year 2008 is around US$800 million, assuming that 85% market is still there to buy EMRSS subscription.
 
What are the new challenges that you face?
The single biggest challenge before us is to educate our customers that, apart from buying and spending huge sums of money on subscriptions, they should also look at having search solutions so that the money they are spending is better utilized and they can increase the usage of resources in which each year they spend around Rs.3 to Rs.5 crore for subscription.
