Abstract

In the process of attaining the objective of National Education Policy 2020 Government of India  initiated a system where digitally born and digitized resources club together in an accessible  form in the public domain. Access to these resources provided for everyone to complete their  education, research, and for any other purpose in which users are interested. The availability of  digital resources has led to different perspectives on how library collections should be developed,  managed, and preserved. Digital technology opens up a new perspective for information society  (IFLA). Today, besides preserving and providing access to `born digital material’ several libraries  engage in converting non-digital resources to digital with the use of the latest technology. The  process of building a digital collection and providing easy and free access to the digital library  needs assessment of certain important issues. Along with this preservation policy and methods  are also need to be reworked and reframed. The present paper throws light on the issues related  to the selection policy, collection development policy, and need of digital library. Also, quality  control, library budget, data management techniques, document encoding, copyright, and rights  management are covered in the article. This will be a valuable addition to the literature on digital  libraries and will also help to plan and strategies digital library services.
