About
INDEST-AICTE Consortium
The INDEST-AICTE Consortium is
the most ambitious initiative taken so far in the country. The “Indian National Digital Library in Engineering
Sciences and Technology (INDEST) Consortium” was set up in 2003 by the Ministry
of Human Resource Development (MHRD) on the recommendation of an Expert Group
appointed by the Ministry. The IIT Delhi was designated as the Consortium
Headquarters to coordinate its activities. The Ministry provides funds required for subscription to selected
electronic resources for (65) institutions including IISc, IITs, NERIST,ISM, IIIT,
IIITM, IISERs, NITs, NITTTR, IIMs and a few other centrally-funded Government
Institutions through the consortium headquarters set-up at the IIT Delhi.
Besides, 60 Government or Government-aided engineering colleges and technical
departments in universities have joined the Consortium with financial support
from the AICTE. The Consortium was re-named as INDEST-AICTE Consortium in
December 2005 with the AICTE playing a pivotal role in enrolling its approved
engineering colleges and institutions as members of the Consortium for selected
e-resources at much lower rates of subscription. The Consortium enrolls
engineering and technological institutions as its members and subscribe to
electronic resources for them at discounted rates of subscription and favorable
terms and conditions. The consortium has
served over 1235 institutions under its Self supported member.
The consortium website at http://paniit.iitd.ac.in/indest
hosts searchable databases of journals and member institutions to locate
journals subscribed by the Consortium, their URLs and details of member
institutions.
