Activities

The three major activities of the SAARC Documentation Centre are:

  1. Organising and conducting training courses and workshops
  2. Collection development
  3. Rendering information services

The Centre on an average organises two Short Term Training courses, two Attachment Training Programmes and one Workshop every year. While the short term and attachment training courses are conducted at New Delhi, the Workshop is organised by the National Focal Point of a Member State. The focus of the training courses and the workshop is mostly on the application of information technology to library and information activities.

To provide information services to the scholars in the region, the SDC has been steadily building its collection. It also draws on the information resources of its host institution NISCAIR, whenever needed.
