Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the function of database management systems
from the perspective of librarians working in engineering institutions
in Andhra Pradesh. Ninety-eight librarians from one hundred thirty engineering
institutions participated in the study. The paper reveals that
training by computer suppliers and software packages are the significant
mode of acquiring DBMS skills by librarians; three-fourths of the librarians
are postgraduate degree holders. Most colleges use database
applications for automation purposes and content value. Electrical problems
and untrained staff seem to be major constraints faced by respondents
for managing library databases.
