education among students and research scholars. This guide has been developed and

scholars and policy makers. This research guide treasures open access online
information resources which can be explored and utilized for research and academic
activities especially during the lock down period, when you are not able to explore
paid resources subscribed by the libraries. More than one billion eBooks, ten
thousands eJournals, eReports and other documents available under open access are
facilitated to access through the research guide.
