    Shamim Aktar Munshi, Sayantoni Barsha
    E Learning and Digital Media, 2026
    Due to the rapid spread of the COVID-19, educational institutes around the world, including India, were forced to close their doors and transition to an online mode of education. The purpose of this study was to analyse the perception and preference towards online learning among students of Aligarh Muslim University in India during this pandemic. Additionally, this study examines the level of awareness regarding various online learning platforms introduced by the University Grants Commission (UGC). A quantitative survey method was applied to achieve the goal of this study. An online questionnaire (Google form) was circulated among students via WhatsApp groups. A total of 234 students responded from different departments, analysis of the data was done with the help of SPSS. The findings of the study revealed that more than 90 percent of respondents preferred online learning to manage their course curriculum during the pandemic, as there were no other alternatives available. The study found that most of the respondents were familiar with various online learning platforms introduced by the UGC. However, a significant number of respondents reported issues with online learning, such as technological constraints, an inappropriate learning environment, various health issues, one-way communication, etc. These findings may be useful in constructing education policies and plans for online learning to make it more effective for students.
  • Online Research Visibility of Chemistry Academicians in Central Universities of India: An Analysis of Google Scholar Profiles
    Shamim Aktar Munshi, Sreeparna Adhikari, Sayantoni Barsha, Mohd Faizan
    Science and Technology Libraries, 2026
    This study aims to evaluate the scholarly contributions of chemistry faculty members at Central Universities in India by examining their Google Scholar citation profiles. The data was gathered through manual searches of Google Scholar profiles using content analysis method, based on faculty members’ names and affiliations. A review of 56 central university websites revealed that only 38 universities offer Chemistry as a subject. Of the 493 faculty members identified, 398 had active Google Scholar profiles. The study revealed that the 398 faculty members have collectively produced approximately 43,526 publications and received 842,859 citations. It was observed that approximately 100 faculty members were not present on the platform. Regular updates of publication lists, including works in edited books and conference proceedings, are essential to ensure their work is accessible to others. Notably, faculty members must regularly review their Google Scholar profiles for incorrectly attributed publications, which may arise from automated name-matching algorithms, particularly in cases of common names or variations in name representation. Such issues are not unique to India and have been reported across different countries and linguistic contexts, underscoring the need for careful profile maintenance. The findings provide valuable insights that can help academic institutions and chemical researchers in India and other countries enhance the quality, visibility, and impact of their research activities, as well as foster meaningful collaboration. The study highlights the role of academic librarians in enhancing faculty research visibility by creating and maintaining accurate metadata, managing and updating researcher profiles, and facilitating the linking of institutional repositories with ORCID systems.
  • Exploring online presence: a study of Google Scholar and Scopus for assessing the visibility of LIS faculties in central universities of India
    Shamim Aktar Munshi, Sayantoni Barsha, Anjan Pal, Mohd Faizan
    Information Discovery and Delivery, 2025
    Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine the Google Scholar (GS) and Scopus citations profiles of library and information science (LIS) faculty members employed in central universities in India to determine their research online visibility. Design/methodology/approach The data was collected through manual searches conducted on GS and Scopus profiles by the end of August 2023, using the names of the faculty members along with their affiliations. The determination of the minimum sample size for each was calculated based on Cochran’s formula. Findings The study revealed that out of 104 LIS faculty members from 19 central universities, 78 (75.0%) faculty members have profiles on GS, while 61 (58.6%) of them are on Scopus. The study found that the faculty members have a substantial number of publications on GS, while their publication count on Scopus appears comparatively lower. The results suggest that certain faculty members have produced a modest number of publications but have received a substantial number of citations compared to their colleagues. Consequently, it can be inferred that there is no straightforward correlation between the volume of publications and citation metrics. Research limitations/implications As the study exclusively focused on LIS faculty members working within central universities in India who have profiles on GS and Scopus, the researchers did not reach all LIS faculty members in India. Practical implications The significance of this research lies in its potential of insights into research productivity and its impact, which are crucial aspects of academia. The study provides valuable insights for individual researchers, LIS departments, institutes and universities in India and other countries to enhance their research performance and foster collaboration by establishing new research guidelines. Originality/value There have been no published research studies regarding the GS and Scopus citation metrics concerning LIS faculty members across all central universities in India.

    Libri, 2025
    The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of visual literacy in enhancing learning effectiveness and enjoyment among elementary school students in the Jalpaiguri district of West Bengal, India. Additionally, the study proposes a model for integrating visual literacy into the elementary school curriculum, offering educators and policymakers pathways to maximize its benefits for future generations. A quantitative survey method with a well-structured questionnaire was employed to gather the necessary data. After obtaining permission from the school authorities, the researchers co-ordinated with the instructors to establish a three-day data collection plan that accommodated their schedules. In total, 84 pupils were selected as a sample population. The study revealed that integrating visual literacy strategies with traditional curricula can significantly improve students’ learning experience and involvement. Tools such as flash cards, picture books, maps, charts, and ICT applications were found to enhance both engagement and vocabulary acquisition. The study found that students had a positive attitude toward using visual aids, which led to cognitive benefits such as improved problem-solving and critical thinking skills. The study also established that graphical tools were particularly effective in second language acquisition, helping students overcome the fear of acquiring a non-native language (English). Furthermore, the study recommends incorporating visual literacy techniques across classroom settings and suggests that these strategies can make elementary education more engaging, effective, and child-friendly.

    Mohd Faizan, Shamim Aktar Munshi
    Performance Measurement and Metrics, 2025
    PurposeThe purpose of this study is to investigate the integrated ICT-based library services at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) from the users' perspectives. By evaluating these services, the study seeks to know how ICT integration enhances academic access, user satisfaction and overall library functionality.Design/methodology/approachThe research employed a survey approach with a questionnaire as the primary data collection tool, involving a sample of 277 participants, determined through the Cochran sample size formula, with a 95% confidence level and a ±5% margin of error, drawing upon 25% of the population using a stratified random sampling technique. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS software version 23, applying statistical tests including T-tests, ANOVA and multivariate MANOVA, along with Tukey’s post hoc analysis.FindingsThe findings revealed that the library is equipped with a state-of-the-art ICT infrastructure facility, which significantly impacts users' academic performance. Research scholars (RS) perceived the highest impact with a mean score of 60.01, followed by postgraduates at 50.04 and undergraduates at 39.83. In terms of ICT-based library services, RS exhibit the highest usage. Additionally, the results indicate a high overall satisfaction level among users regarding library resources and services, with a mean satisfaction score of 4.10. However, 28.5% (N = 79) of respondents reported issue “in locating specific information.”Practical implicationsThe study demonstrates how the integration of ICT can significantly enhance service delivery, support academic advancement and improve user satisfaction in an increasingly digital and networked environment. These findings and strategies are valuable for libraries around the world, providing a roadmap for using technology to satisfy their users' changing requirements and encouraging an atmosphere of innovation and constant development for library services.Originality/valueBy focusing on user perspectives, the study provides actionable recommendations for library administrators and policymakers aiming to optimize library services in the digital age. The findings can serve as a benchmark for similar academic institutions striving to enhance academic access through technological advancements.

    Shamim Aktar Munshi, Mehtab Alam Ansari, Sayantoni Barsha
    Libri, 2024
    The purpose of this study is to examine the services and facilities provided by rural public libraries in West Bengal, India. In addition, the study aims to evaluate the perceptions of librarians regarding the implementation of Information Communication Technology (ICT) applications in these libraries. The study employed a mixed-methods approach, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative methods to gather data. The primary method of data collection was a survey using a structured questionnaire, which was administered to a total of 102 rural libraries. Furthermore, interviews were conducted with the respective librarians to bring more objectivity to the results. The findings revealed that rural libraries possess a moderate collection of printed books, newspapers, and magazines. The results indicate that these rural libraries offer a diverse range of services and facilities that benefit their respective communities. However, findings of the study indicated an acute shortage of staff in almost all the surveyed libraries, with this factor, consequently, affecting services. One significant challenge faced by these libraries is the lack of ICT applications. Nevertheless, most librarians expressed positive attitudes towards the implementation of ICT in rural libraries, recognizing their potential to enhance library services and reach out to a wider audience. Based on the findings of the study, it is recommended that the government should provide the necessary ICT tools in order to provide ICT-based library services. The results of this study can contribute to the upgrading and restructuring of rural library collections, infrastructure, services, and facilities in developing countries.
