From this survey, the investigator has been able to find out that almost all the scientists are consulting e-journals from their campus cabin, not only for research purposes but also to update their own knowledge. The infrastructure to use e-journals are superb and there is no technological problem specially hardware and software support with high bandwidth of Internet speed exists here, as CSIR-IGIB uses largest computing facility (four Tflop\/s) in Asia outside Japan (ranked 158th among the World\u2019s Top 500 Super Computers). Respondents also identified that there is dire need for training in using e-resources and retrieving pinpointed information from the databases. <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Research limitations\/implications<\/jats:title>\n \u2013 The present paper consists only of scientists and the geographical area is restricted to CSIR-IGIB, Delhi. The scope of the paper can be extended to additional CSIR libraries. A comparative study can also be made among some biological research libraries of CSIR Institutes. <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Originality\/value<\/jats:title>\n \u2013 There are a number of studies on the use of e-journals by CSIR scientists, but this is the first of its kind which covers scientists of IGIB that has the largest computing facility (four Tflop\/s) in Asia outside Japan. As such, it should pave the way for research and lead a model role for other CSIR Institutes as well as elsewhere.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/el-07-2014-0107","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,9,17]],"date-time":"2015-09-17T12:00:05Z","timestamp":1442491205000},"page":"928-942","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Use of e-journals by the scientists of CSIR-Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology (IGIB), Delhi, India"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Jamal","family":"Qasim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Abdul Mannan","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2020122003071570300_b1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bar-Ilan, J.\n and \n Fink, N.\n (2005), \u201cPreference for electronic format of scientific journals \u2013 a case study of the science library users at the Hebrew University\u201d, \n Library & Information Science Research\n , Vol. 27 No. 3, pp. 363-376.","DOI":"10.1016\/j.lisr.2005.04.011"},{"key":"key2020122003071570300_b2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bonorino, A.G.\n and \n Molteni, V.E.\n (2007), \u201cElectronic journals collections in Argentine private academic libraries\u201d, \n The Electronic Library\n , Vol. 25 No. 1, pp. 65-79.","DOI":"10.1108\/02640470710729128"},{"key":"key2020122003071570300_b3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Brady, E.E.\n , \n McCord, S.K.\n and \n Galbraith, B.\n (2006), \u201cPrint versus electronic journal use in three sci\/tech disciplines: the cultural shift in process\u201d, \n College & Research Libraries\n , Vol. 67 No. 4, pp. 354-363.","DOI":"10.5860\/crl.67.4.354"},{"key":"key2020122003071570300_b4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Danner, R.A.\n , \n Kolev, K.\n and \n Most, M.\n (2011), \u201cPrint or perish?
