Doctoral Theses in LIS submitted to Shodhganga: An overview

In India, Library and Information Science Education has completed its one hundred years. Research is the most significant activity in every subject to established novel concepts, therefore comprehensive portrait of LIS research in India is trying to express in this article. Universities offering Ph.D. programmes were identified by using the various sources. A search was carried out by key wards for the theses submitted to Shodhganga, a data bank of Inflibnet. Based on data collected from shodhganga, the growth and development of LIS research in India till 2017 is traced.

ETDs can contain non-text elements such as multimedia, sound, video, and hypertext links. This enables scholars worldwide to locate, search, and download ETDs. For most scholars, the the Ph.D thesis and M.phil dissertations are the first major work of scholarship they produce. To make those works more readily available to other scholars, as well as to save money, many universities and libraries are now making digitized (or electronic) versions available. The Shodhganga@INFLIBNET is set-up using open source digital repository software called DSpace developed by MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) in partnership between Hewlett- Packard (HP). The DSpace uses internationally recognized protocols and interoperability standards. Shodhganga provides a platform for research scholars to deposit their Ph.D. theses and make it available to the entire scholarly community in open access. An attempt has been made to determine the present status of participating Indian Universities in Shodganga.

This article presents an analytical perspective about the plagiarism related issues in digital age with special reference to Indian Universities. Presently, India is third world's largest country for higher education system where more than 677 universities and 35829 collages are available for providing higher education. Plagiarism is an issue of research misconduct in academic and research community. In digital age plagiarism is copying words/text from any kind of information sources (Internet, books, magazines, journals, project reports, publications, white papers etc.) without proper citation. Plagiarism is the act of stealing someone else's work and attempting to pass it off as your own. In ICT era plagiarism detection is very easy job for academicians, researchers and publishers. To Preventing the plagiarism in Indian universities, INFLIBNET Centre on behalf of UGC, MHRD, and Govt. of India provided two anti-plagiarism software's "iThenticate" and "Turnitin" under the Shodhganga project to 110 universities for the one year in 2014. Currently, INFLIBNET Centre provided "Urkund" anti-plagiarism software to selected 135 Indian universities for the year 2015-16. Today, many more plagiarism detection software's (open source and proprietary) are available for easily use by academic institutions/universities. This paper also suggests the sustaining skills to avoid plagiarism or reduce the percentage of plagiarism in their submission research work to respective university/institution.

The concept of Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETDs) in India has gained momentum in recent years particularly from June 1, 2009, when the University Grants Commission (UGC), a statutory body of Indian Higher Education System mandated submission of electronic version of theses and dissertations by the researchers in universities with an aim to facilitate open access to Indian theses and dissertations to the academic community world-wide. In compliance to the UGC mandate, Shodhganga repository, a reservoir of Indian research output was set up by INFLIBNET Centre, Ahmedabad, using DSpace open source software with the aim to collect, preserve and provide access to ETDs submitted in Universities and Institutions in India. The purpose of this paper is to identify major contributors of ETDs in Shodhganga (Indian Ph.D. Theses Repository – iETD) particularly AMU, Aligarh during the years 2013-16. It also focuses on department/subject wise contribution of ETDs from Aligarh Muslim University (AMU). The study shows that AMU has been ranked no. 1 in terms of contribution in Shodhganga with 6138 full text theses and dissertations followed by Panjab University (5616) and Jawaharlal Nehru University (4458). The study also depicts that during the year 2015, highest no. of theses and dissertations (5405) were submitted in Shodhganga repository. Department of Chemistry of AMU has contributed maximum no. of ETDs i.e. 816 theses and dissertations, followed by Department of Bio-Chemistry (419) and Department of Zoology (371). The paper concludes with the brief discussion of some future plans which will be taken up by the AMU to make accessible its maximum research output to the global academic community

Universities are highly responsible for developing new theories through innovative research studies in all around the globe. Students and scholars are putting their best efforts to produce new facts and principles in these centres of higher studies. In India we have around 350 universities and every year almost more than 12000 PhDs are being produced by these universities. Avoiding duplication of research work is a serious matter of concern to all nations. Innovations in ICTs become a boon to avoid duplication as well as utilization of these studies. An electronic submission of these dissertations and theses are known as ETDs. Modern information and communication technology (ICT) acts as an effective intervener for paradigm shifting from closed access theses and dissertations to open access electronic theses and dissertations (ETD). The present study brings out grate opportunity to the library professionals to implement makes the initiatives to create the MoU from Shodhganga from INFLIBNET for the purpose of submission of electronic theses and dissertations. Nearly 202 universities from 29 States of India are registered in Shodhganga as on 25 th march 2015. It is highlighted one that among the 29 States of India, 32 universiti es from Tamil Nadu are registered in the ETD repository scheme of INFLIBNET. It is encourage one that within three months of 2015, 16 universities are register MoU with INFLIBNET for Shodhganga and it may break the earlier records of registration within end of the 2015. Among the 29 States, 202 universities were signed MoU, It is noticed that 54 universities are registered in 2013, 51 universities in 2012, 38 universities registered in 2011 and 10 universities registered in 2010, as on March 2015, 16 universities are registered MoU with INFLIBNET for Shodhganga. It understands from the table that 14 Government universities and 18 private universities from Tamil Nadu are register with Shodhganga. In the second position, 17 government and 7 private universities from Maharashtra registered for Shodhganga. Among the top 25 Indian university in these list, 5 state universities like such as follow as Anna university, Periyar University, Bharathidasan University, Manonmanian Sundarnar University and Bharathiar University are submitting more ETD to Shodhganga.

The deposition of ETD’s by the universities of Kerala into Shodhganga is counted in this article. Data for the study were extracted from Shodhganga as on 10th May 2019. The analysis revealed that out of 18 universities in Kerala, 7 universities contribute to Shodhganga ETD repository with a total of 10105 theses. University of Kerala and Mahatma Gandhi University with 2974 and 2769 theses respectively were the top universities to deposit RTD’s onto the repository. The study is useful to know the number of universities which are in line with the ‘UGCMinimum Standards & Procedure for Award of M.Phil. / Ph.D. Degree, Regulation, 2009’ which mandates uploading of electronic versions of theses into the Shodhganga repository for the benefit of the scholars in particular and the taxpayers across the nation in general.

Theses and dissertation are known to be the rich and unique source of information, often the only source of research work that does not find its way into various publication channels. Theses and dissertations remain an untapped and under-utilized asset, leading to unnecessary duplication and repetition that, in effect, is the antitheses of research and wastage of huge resources, both human and financial. In this paper examines the Electronic thesis and Dissertation (ETDs) deposited at INFLIBNET Shodhganga project by Indian Universities. It is found that 99994 + theses have been deposited on various disciplines by 260 universities. The 3485 synopses were uploaded in the Shodhganga project. In this paper analysed top ten universities contributing electronic theses, year wise contribution and top viewed theses in the database.
