Why such projects?• Change is inevitable!• Lack of funding is BIGGEST problem in

research(?) work.• Cheap guidebooks vs eContent – Quality,

capital and coverage.• Red-tapeism – bureaucratic problems!• Power structure – collapses!• Shift - from user of eResources to

contributor of eResources!

Why such projects?• Islands of intellects – it is time to connect

islands to make a difference in academia!• National stigma – Gujarat and educational

research? Huh!• India’s web presence as knowledge society in

an era of informationism.• Participation in the process of information
