Use Patterns of Electronic Information Resources: by Aerospace Scientists and Engineers in Bangalore, India

This book attempts to study conventional and electronic information resources used by the Indian aerospace scientists and engineers of aerospace organizations of Bangalore. Aerospace is key technology today owing to its huge growth in Asia in general and India in particular. Indian scientists and engineers currently working on strategically important projects depend heavily on rapid collection of information from various e-information resources. Seeking information through e-resources is an upcoming and endearing activity. This book analyzes in detail use patterns with specific reference to various aerospace engineering e-journals and core e-databases frequently used by Indian aerospace scientists and engineers in their R&D activities. Use pattern of electronic information resources is same for scientists and engineers irrespective of their disciplines. But, aerospace scientists and engineers have an advantage as they are well exposed to the e-Environment and IT due to nature of their work itself. The use of Electronic Information Resources is highly expected from them particularly as an Integrated Information System to their learning and working environment.
