Content Analysis of Contributors of Higher Educational Institutes of Gujarat

with reference to NDLI

Abstract

The purpose of the current study is to analyse the contents of National Digital Library of India (NDLI). The study also searches organisations that have formed their institutional digital repositories and take part through their links to National Digital Library. NDLI is a single window for all digital content and resources. The user according to his educational level can choose the learning material. The searches can be refined by picking diverse options like type of learning resource, educational degree, file formats, languages, etc. The paper's analysis is based on a content analysis of the resources contributed by higher educational institutions in Gujarat to the NDLI platform. To commence the present study, data were collected from the website of NDLI (http://ndl .iitkgn.ac.in) in between 20th and 27th February 2023. The findings of the study will provide insights into the extent to which the NDLI project is being utilised by educational institutions in Gujarat, and the potential impact of the project on the academic community in the region. It is identified from the study that the majority of the resources are uploaded by IIMA. It is also identified from the study that more numbers of institutes have participated by sharing their resources through IDR.
