Newgen Software Implements Document Management Solution at IGCAR
Indira Gandhi Center for Atomic Research (IGCAR) chose Newgen to implement a Document Management System for Library Management for anytime, anywhere availability of research material available in the library.
IGCAR has nearly 2500 employees (both research and non-research staff) working in their campus. The library houses an ever-increasing collection of books, journals, periodicals, research papers, magazines, etc. The library was facing the problem of not being able to make available on demand the reference and research material to its employees. Moreover, many a times, multiple employees required the same study/reference material. With its existing system, the library was finding it difficult to manage various types of study/reference material and making it available to employees on time. This resulted in employee dissatisfaction, lower morale and reduced productivity.
Newgen recommended IGCAR to go for a solution comprising of OmniDocsTM and OmniScanTM. OmniScanTM is used to scan, index and finally upload the images of study/reference material to OmniDocsTM, where they are stored, managed and archived. Using rights-based access, a large number of employees are able to simultaneously access books, periodicals, journals, etc. Other benefits include reduced procurement costs, direct access from individual workstations and Web-based access to the study/reference material in the library, and reduced maintenance cost.
IGCAR was established in 1971 under the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India. It is engaged in broad-based multidisciplinary program of scientific research and advanced engineering directed towards the development of Fast Breeder Reactor technology.
