INFLIBNET has been working since 2010 to provide open access platforms for academics, faculty, and information scientists at higher education institutions in India. INFLIBNET is a center that helps libraries share information and resources with each other. Some of its current and future projects are Shodhganga (Reservoir of Indian Electronic Thesis & Dissertations), Shodhgangotri (Repository in research in progress), IR@INFLIBNET (Institutional Repositories), INFOPORT (Subject gateway for Indian Electronic Resources), Research Project Database (provides details of completed and ongoing projects), and Shodh-Chakra (provides a unique space for the researcher, guide/supervisor, and university to manage the research lifecycle). The study primarily examines the implementation of INFLIBNET's open access initiatives to enhance research visibility and foster an effective academic ecosystem that empowers researchers and supports information sharing across institutions of higher learning.
