Knowledge Types:
- Tacit Knowledge– Tacit knowledge is knowledge that an individual is unable to express and thereby convert into information. it can only be transmitted via training or gained through personal experience. (Source: Leena Khullar, Knowledge Management in Libraries, Fifty Third All India Library Conference, Dec. 13-16, 2007, Page No. 482.) Tacit Knowledge is subjective and experience based knowledge that cannot be expressed in words, it resides in the human mind. This type of knowledge can be seen in the behaviour or action of a person. (Source: Vimal Sharma, KM: Roles of Libraries & Librarians in KM, NACLIN 2006 Page 450-451)
- Explicit Knowledge : Explicit Knowledge is knowledge that individuals are able to express fairly easily using language or other forms of communications. It also means storing information and documents that can be shared and reused, for example manuals, research reports. (Source: Leena Khullar, Knowledge Management in Libraries Fifty Third All India Library Conference, Dec. 13-16, 2007, Page No. 482.) Explicit Knowledge is objective and rational knowledge that can be expressed in words. It is well communicable and available in some media. As a librarian & informational professionals, we basically deal with explicit knowledge. (Source: Vimal Sharma, KM: Roles of Libraries & Librarians in KM, NACLIN 2006 Page 450-451)

In campus and out of the campus access to resources:
a) EZproxy is a web proxy server used by libraries to give access from outside the library’s computer network to restricted-access websites that authenticate users by IP address. This allows library patrons at home or elsewhere to log in through their library’s EZproxy server and gain access to resources to which their library subscribes, such as bibliographic databases.
The software was originally written by Chris Zagar in 1999 who founded Useful Utilities LLC to support it. OCLC announced in January 2008 that it had acquired the product and was hiring Zagar as a full-time consultant for a year.[1] Zagar is a librarian who serves as a systems librarian at the Estrella Mountain Community College, a part of the Maricopa Community Colleges in Arizona. He won the 2006 LITA/Brett Butler Entrepreneurship Award for his work with EZproxy. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EZproxyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EZproxy

c) INFLIBNET Access Management Federation (INFED) has adopted Shibboleth, a standard-based open source software, for authenticating authorized users from institutions and provide them seamless access to e-resources from anywhere, anytime. Shibboleth offers a mechanism for users to access multiple resources within a federated single sign-on framework. The goal of the INFED is to allow users to access internal and external resources seamlessly using a single, institutionally controlled identity. Source: https://parichay.inflibnet.ac.in/about.php
Patron-driven acquisition (PDA), also referred to as demand-driven acquisition (DDA),[1] is a model of library collection development in which a library only purchases materials when it is clear that a patron wants them. In an ideal transaction, libraries provide the patron with access to search engines, academic databases and/or library catalogs from which the patron can request items. When certain thresholds are reached for an item (e.g., number of pages read or number of requests), the library purchases the item and delivers instant access to patrons.[2] The library may acquire the resource permanently, or acquire a license to use the resource only at certain times or in certain ways. Since content purchased is in digital format, “PDA emphasizes collecting for and at the moment of need” instead of collecting with a long-term focus.

Difference between Open source Software and Proprietary Software :
| S.No. | OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE | PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE |
|---|---|---|
| 01. | Open source software is a computer software whose source code is available openly in internet and programmers can modify it to add new features and capabilities without any cost. | Proprietary software is a computer software where the source codes are not publicly not available only the company which has created can modify it. |
| 02. | Here the software is developed and tested through open collaboration. | Here the software is developed and tested by the individual or organization by which it is owned not by public. |
| 03. | In open source software the source code is public. | In proprietary software the source code is protected. |
| 04. | Open source software can be installed into any computer. | Proprietary software can be installed into any computer without valid license. |
| 05. | Users do not need to have any authenticated license to use this software. | Users need to have a valid and authenticated license to use this software. |
| 06. | Open source software is managed by an open source community of developers. | Proprietary software is managed by an closed team of individuals or groups that developed it. |
| 07. | It is more flexible and provides more freedom which encourages innovation. | It is not much flexible so here is very limited innovation scope with the restrictions. |
| 08. | Users can get open software for free of charge. | Users must have to pay to get the proprietary software. |
| 09. | In open source software faster fixes of bugs and better security is availed due to the community. | In proprietary software the vendor is completely responsible for fixing of malfunctions. |
| 10. | Examples are Android, Linux, Firefox, Open Office, GIMP, VLC Media player etc. | Examples are Windows, MacOS, Internet Explorer, Google earth, Microsoft Office, Adobe Flash Player, Skype etc. |

Digital Library and Ontology Library
Principally both a digital library and an ontology library have the similar kinds of purposes and objectives to achieve (e.g., store, organize and provide access to the digital objects), except the kind of materials they deal with.
A digital library deals with the documents of various types, such as text, audio, video, images, etc., while an ontology library deals with the ontologies (where an ontology is an intelligent object, often referred as a digital artifact, consisted of representations of the entities in terms of their types, properties and the relationships of a domain of discourse).

History: DSpace was originally developed by MIT Libraries and Hewlett-Packard (HP) Labs. Since its initial open source release in 2002, the platform has been guided by a global community of committers, developers, repository managers, and other stakeholders who contribute to project governance. DSpace became a DuraSpace project in 2009 when the Fedora Commons and DSpace organizations merged to form DuraSpace. (PDF) https://duraspace.org/wp-content/uploads/dspace-files/specsh_dspace.pdf
Prerequisite/Technical Aspects/Technical Specifications:
Operating System: Written in Java, tested under Linux, Windows, and Mac OSX
License: BSD
Release version: 6.0, https://duraspace.org/dspace/download/
Documentation: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC/
Other prerequisite software: Java 7 or 8, Apache Maven, Apache Ant, Relational Database – PostgreSQL or Oracle, Servlet 3.0 container (Tomcat 7+ or similar).
Key Features
Application Architecture: DSpace is a full stack web application, consisting of a database, storage manager and front end web interface. The architecture includes a specific data model with configurable metadata schemas, workflows and browse/search functionality.
Modern, RESTful Web UI (coming soon): DSpace 7.0 will feature a completely rewritten web user interface based on the Angular 2 javascript platform.
Built-in workflows: Originally designed for libraries, the embedded DSpace data model and approval workflows are familiar to librarians and archivists.
Built-in search engine: DSpace comes packaged with Apache Solr, an open source enterprise search platform that enables filtered (faceted) searching and browsing of all objects. The full text of common file formats is searchable, along with all metadata fields. Browse by interfaces are also configurable.
Unlimited File types: DSpace can store any type of file. In addition, it auto-recognizes files of most common formats (e.g., DOC, PDF, XLS, PPT, JPEG, MPEG, TIFF).
Metadata: By default, DSpace uses a Qualified Dublin Core (QDC) based metadata schema. Institutions can extend that base schema or add custom QDC-like schemas. DSpace can import or export metadata from other major metadata schemas such as MARC or MODS.
Tools/plugins: DSpace comes with a suite of tools (batch ingest, batch export, batch metadata editing, etc.) and plugins for translating content into DSpace objects. Additionally, commercial plugins are available through service providers.
Security: DSpace provides its own built-in authentication / authorization system, but can also integrate with existing authentication systems such as LDAP or Shibboleth.
Permissions: DSpace allows you to control read/write permissions site-wide, per community, per collection, per item and per file. You may also delegate administrative permissions per community or per collection.
Disaster Recovery: DSpace allows you to export all of your system content as AIP (Archival Information Packages) backup files. These AIPs can be used to restore your entire site, or restore individual communities, collections or items.
OAI-PMH / SWORD (v1 and v2) / OpenAIRE / Driver: DSpace complies with standard protocols and best practices for access, ingest, and export.
REST: DSpace provides RESTful APIs in accordance with modern web standards.
Configurable Database: Organizations can choose either PostgreSQL or Oracle for the database in which DSpace manages items and metadata.
Configurable File Storage: Files in DSpace can be stored either using a local filesystem (default) or a cloud-based solution, such as Amazon S3.
Data Integrity: On upload, DSpace calculates and stores a checksum for each file. Optionally, you may ask DSpace to verify those checksums to validate file integrity.
Languages: DSpace is available in over 20 languages.
