Documentation and Information Services Launch Vehicle Projects - VSSC Launch Vehicle Projects
Marketing of Information • Marketing of Information means keeping users informed about latest developments, innovations and products • Marketing becomes important either when supply exceeds the demand or the introduction of a new service • Means of making the user aware of the services and enabling them to use it
Contributions : DIS-LV Projects • To meet the specific information needs of the Project • To capture, create, organize and disseminate all relevant worldwide information on Launch Vehicle Technology in specific areas as required • To anticipate the information requirements of the users and their fulfillment • To keep a repository of the documents generated in the projects for fast retrieval • To manage Tacit knowledge
Contributions…… • Library / Documentation professionals surf the net, select, find, arrange, classify and automatically deliver the needed information to each user as per his/her special interest. • Helping the Project engineers to access the right information at the right time thereby conserving their potential for scientific pursuits • Information on the web is growing exponentially • New web pages are added every second • NEEDLE IN HAYSTACK
Prefer desktop access to information than visit to Library / Documentation Centre • Digital Documentation cell of DIS-LV projects enable this

Institutional Repository of Launch Vehicle Projects • Documentation and Information Services - LV projects is the focal point of the Project Reports of the Launch Vehicle Projects (PSLV, GSLV and GSLV Mk III) • Authentication of reports with Report Number. • Report numbering scheme • PSLV-VSSC-PR-MA-35-011 • PSLV : PROJECT IDENTIFICATION • VSSC : CENTRE IN ISRO • PR : PROJECT REPORT • MA : SUBJECT CODE (Eg. MISSION AND AERODYNAMICS) • 35 : SERIAL NUMBER / ACCESSION NUMBER • 011 : YEAR OF PUBLICATION
TACIT Knowledge Thoughts Ideas, Comments, Critics Standards, Documents Values, Handbooks,... Means for sharing explicit knowledge Means for sharing implicit & tacit knowledge
Conclusion • Successful efforts taken for marketing information is not in vain. • All the users are of the opinion that announcements through e-mail regarding addition/updation of information in DIS website inspire them to browse the site.
