The QML is represented by nine key activities of libraries viz, Commitment by management/leadership; Education & Training; Services standards; Processes standards;' Customers' survey; Quality manuals; suggestion/ feedback systems; Quality circles; and Individual ethics for management and learning treated as dependent variables. In the study, the empirical data was collected through a questionnaire from a sample population of special libraries in India. A TQM based approach was followed by using modified form of European, Quality Model. Presents the findings on QML and its variations among special libraries in India and establishes knowledge on associative patterns between QML and six factors. The results of the survey reveal that (or proper performance measurement of LIS sector, OML depends upon a TQM oriented instrument concludes that QML is closely associated with innovation and reorganization process rather than streamlining and securing routine functions and processes which would be a conservative approach for successful Quality Management in libraries.

This paper discusses the benefits of barcode technology and gives guidelines for selecting the hardware/softwares highlighting the features of scanners and printers. The paper also gives guidelines for retrospective. conversion, which becomes the core issue in any library with a very large collection. Some tips necessary for software customization have also been provided. This paper is a case study based on the barcoding and retrospective conversion project undertaken at IGIDR Library, Mumbai, India.

The study was based on the literature abstracted in the 1990- 2000 articles of Tropical Diseases Bulletin and Tsetse and Trypanosomiasis Quarterly (TTQ) using the counting method. It is found that both the annual rates and the cumulation of author collaboration for the period for each of the ten years was high although the figures obtained for 1992- 1995 and 1998 -2000 were higher than those for 1990- 1991 and 1996 - 1997. Concludes that though author collaboration exists in African Trypanosomiasis literature for the ten years studied, it is generally high but each year's literature is dominated by multiple authorship, and in all, two and three authored papers were predominant. The extent of collaboration was up to 11 authors per article, and this calls for more collaboration to extend the authorship beyond 11 authors per paper, as it is noted in other scientific disciplines. The study has provided factual information in support of information services in the field of African Trypanosomiasis literature.
