English abstract

RS is an effective tool towards providing extensive access with limited financial resources. Users’ demands and expectations have also arisen with the speedy growth of knowledge resources. Because of budgetary cuts, libraries are unable to purchase the needed material, so they should aim for mutual cooperation. At present, professionals are sharing their library resources as a professional and personal courtesy. There is a dire need for mutual formal cooperative programmes at different levels.
