Abstract

In the present study, the role of Library Associations combining with strategic tools and policy to deal with paradigm shift has been discussed. The study proposes a model to train and equip the women librarians to support open access environment in academic libraries in India. Perhaps, there are many Library Associations active however there is no such Women Library Association in the country. Therefore, this model is proposed to enhance the culture of knowledge and the requirement of qualified professionals in this Open Access world of learning. Initially, the proposed model is limited to Indian Women Library Professionals however the progressing years may proceed with a global outlook. The Association shall continue to function with the help of membership, donation and sponsorship while maintainingquality & standards. A global expansion of the knowledge community of Open Access will be a part of the agenda in the progressing years.
