Abstract

CD-ROM has an indispensable role to play in the dissemination of electronic information. Full Text archiving and publishing in CD-ROM has already found a special place in the rapidly growing digital library environment. Many of the full text CD-ROM titles are coming with thousands of document files, but without efficient retrieval facilities. This Paper discusses the growing importance of CD-ROM publishing and the necessity of providing efficient search mechanism in full text CDs with special reference to ‘Nitya’ a program for digital archiving giving prime importance to search and retrieval. Features of Nitya, its main components and functions are discussed in detail. The study recommends that ‘ Nitya’ is highly suited for CD-ROM full text publishing.
