Regarding AICTE Mandatory E-Journals for Private University
Dear Members,
we are having Engineering, Management, Architecture and other branches along with P.G. Courses and research programme in our University (a Private University). After declration from AICTE we tried to subscribe for our library the said Mandatory E-Journals form publishers like Springer and others ,But they told us that their packakges are only for Institutes/Colleges not for University. we tried to contact regional office of AICTE, Kanpur in this regard but they are also not confirm about this.we are trying to contact AICTE ,main office but no use, If any body is aware about this please help and give your valuable suggestions.(we were subscribing INDEST-Consortia earlier now they are also decline to provide any services.)
Thanks.

Dear Ms. Atika Khursheed,
Thanks for your post. However, I am a bit confused about the status of your institution. Because, if yours is an University, it should come under the purview of the UGC. How come it came under the AICTE norm? I think you first get it clarified, then try accordingly. Being an University, you can approach INFLIBNET to participate in their consortia or try for INDEST Consortia. Once your status is known, you can talk to IIT Kanpur Library people for INDEST.
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
