Abstract

This paper presents the use pattern of various web information resources by the visually challenged students. The category of students encompasses the students studying in the higher educational institutions in the state of Karnataka. The students who are pursuing undergraduate and postgraduate courses are covered here. Of late, many important sources of information are made available online and hence the users develop the trend of accessing information sources on the web. Therefore, students and researchers who are studying in colleges and universities have developed the habit of accessing e-books, e-journals, e-theses, online databases, current information/events and proceedings of seminars and conferences on the web. This paper deals with the extent of the use of various e-resources by the visually challenged students. Pragmatic and useful recommendations are provided as the outcome of the study.
