Why subscribe to online journals when it is not used by the users?

These days many institute subscribe to lots of journals, but they are not used even by a single reader. The institute only subscribe to those journals to fullfill the requirement of the AICTE. What other facility can be started instead of spending money in subscribing to those online journals?

I Think in any prestigious institution..is Subscribing of E-journal because requirement full fill of the AICTE. But you thinked that why these rules of AICTE. because E - Journal most important information sources. and Follow of fourth law of library science by E- Journal services.
And used of E-Journal of user, based on the library professional and awareness of user.so aware to user of e-journal for use .

Dear Rajpal,

Electronic publishing has been revolutionizing the format of the recorded knowledge electronic information service are attracting to readers attention in today network environment. This changing scenario I library environment has arrives for the need and the use of e-journals along with print version electronic journal bring new challenges before the library and information professional to give full text access. that why we cannot ignore the utilization of e- journals for the institute Here I am mentioned some points for why we subscribe e- journals for the students after read these points we can know the better use of e- journals.
Points are mentioned below.
1- Sometimes institute/academic organization buying the e-journals database to get place in better ranking in the world they don’t care if no one can use resources which they subscribe for her/his students
2- This plays a vital role in increasing the resources to in hence like knowledge in academic organizations and also contribute in the area of research.
3- The basic purpose of buying journal to disseminate quality in knowledge in to the students and people associate in academic & society.
4- To provide remote access simultaneously use by more than one user timely access searching.

These are my suggestions if you need any question so plz asked me through e-mail or via phone


Thanking you
