This is so called the age of intellectual power and we need freedom of right of Information Technology: In this age of  Cybermetrics and Informetrics. We are now struggling to reach the ' LOK- TANTRIC intellectual FREEDOM of righ t with the new horizon of imagination, knowledge and power to uplift our knowledge based society of New Nepal' .  I would like to request you to  circulate or posting this message: a very powerful intellectual software package to manage and organize your information at your concerned centres or related branches of the non-profit system or organizations. For more information you may refer :  WWW.unesco.org/isis/  How is narrowing the gap of digitalized divide; between information rich and information poor? It is just like a 'leapfrogging process9; , which denotes accelerating digitalized process for institutionalization and good governance of information management system. UNESCO';s WINISIS system has been a boon to create cyber culture to our intellectual communities. So the information or knowledge empowerment has been the basic principle for developing scientific culture in our social system.   This package is the powerful tools of 'Knowledge Management (KM)' and Information searching, indexing and bibliographic cataloguing, searching, printing and remote learning or e-learning purposes.   It is one of the most powerful bibliographic or textual information retrieval software used especially for library and information digitalization, information and remote learning for the end users or remote learning purposes. Also, it is used for developing information consortium and networking purposes in the modern middle scale or small scale libraries or information centre';s purposes. It's also used for research and development (R & D) for scholar9;s and networking for the users of various disciplines.    During the past twelve months, UNESCO has distributed upon request more than a million copies of its information storage and retrieval software CDS/ISIS. Most of the requests for the software that is available in version 1.5 for Windows, are received online. The high demand of CDS/ISIS shows that free software is very much needed for managing databases in libraries and information centers." 40 percent of the requests have been received from these institutions, he adds. Micro CDS/ISIS is advanced non-numerical information storage and retrieval software developed by UNESCO since 1985 to satisfy the need expressed by many institutions, especially in developing countries, to be able to streamline in information processing activities by using modern and relatively inexpensive technologies. The software was originally used on the Mainframe version of CDS/ISIS, started in the late '60s, the advantage of several years of experience acquired in database management software development. Several partners contributed to its involvement through the years. UNESCO has accumulated significant experience in facilitating the development of some key software tools for processing information. These software tools are distributed free-of-charge and the objective is to empower the users by giving them access to some technology for development and knowledge sharing, that most of them otherwise could not afford. The development model is based international cooperation and the software tools are continuously enriched, modified and updated with the cooperation of a community of experts from different countries. The most popular UNESCO';s software tools are: CDS/ISIS, IDAMS and Greenstone. In Nepal, more than 2000 libraries and information centers are using this software package CDS/ISIS or WINISIS.   For more information, you may contact with your profile;      Organization* (University, Ministry, etc,        Institution.
