- The invention of digital technology for information storage and retrieval is a milestone in the process of making formal communication flexible and transparent. It is only by harnessing digital technology the wealth of information, which is growing at an exponential rate, can be effectively managed. By developing capacious secondary storage devices like Compact Discs and hard disks, it is made possible to have digital libraries and digital publications. The present trend is to convert printed records into digital records – a situation comparable to the Middle Ages when manuscripts were converted to printed documents with the invention of printing. Nitya is a full text retrieval utility developed by CIRD (Centre for Informatics Research and Development) in Kerala for the creation and maintenance of digital libraries. The utility can be used for bringing out digital publications too. Nitya is created by interfacing UNESCO’s database management system CDS/ISIS and Adobe Acrobat Reader. Searching of the digital library and opening of the full text is made possible by this front end.
