Information repackaging


Information repackaging refers to putting together information gathered from different sources and condensing it. Information Repackaging (IR) is a library and information service which customizes information to meet the specific needs of users

Packaging is the bundling of products and services to address specific needs. It can be done by:

  1. Reformatting and synthesizing raw information;
  2. Combining expertise or consulting on a subject with access to relevant information sources;
  3. Providing training or assistance to a user in accessing an information product.

Information repackaging can be done in many ways including reformatting and synthesizing raw information, combining expertise or consulting on subject with access to relevant information sources and providing training or assistance to users in increasing an information product. Illiteracy is a barrier for access to information.Therefore, information providers should always adequately interpret, repackage and apply information to the user’s situation and help communities to act on the information they receive.

Dear Anwar,

 

 

As you will be aware that now a days vast of information is available every where & it has been very difficult for the users to go through the every piece of information when he required because it will take so much time to search that unstructured information. So as LIS professional we repackage the information in that manner so that can be accessible easily. We provide the tags, Keyword, abstract, index, cataloged, classify & made it more presentable form.

 

So Information repackaging means to present the information in structured, understandable, & acceptable forms. so that can be access & search easily. 

 

I hope, it will be understandable to you.

 

Thanks & regards,

 

Mohammed Yaseen
