iProf launches Digi Library with free content


iProf Learning Solutions, a tablet-based education content provider, is taking the concept of e-learning a step ahead with the new Digi Library.
The Digi Library would provide preparation material for competitive exams such as engineering, medical, CAT and IAS, along with course packs for class XI and XII.
However, within the next few weeks the company plans to add course material for all classes starting from nursery to high school.
iProf has secured Rs 22 crore from investment company Norwest Venture Partners (NVP) and technology venture capital fund IDG Ventures India.
The content on the library would be available free of cost for students.
Sanjay Purohit, Chief Executive Officer, iProf, said that revenues would be generated from two streams — services and home-delivery of digital content for offline access.
He added that the paid services would include live chat with teachers, virtual classes, drop-box for questions and clarifications and one-on-one mentoring sessions.
“There is something schools, hospitals and retail shops have in common in India. There would never be enough of any of them. That is why leveraging technology for these sectors is so important,” said Sudhir Sethi, Founder Chairman and Managing Director, IDG Ventures India.
He added that there was no question of charging for content as that is not a scalable model, especially since content is available free of cost across the world.
Forty schools across India have already subscribed to the Digi Library, which can be availed by institutions as well as individuals.
Sanjay Purohit said they have seen more demand coming from tier-II and III cities and smaller towns as compared to saturated cities such as Delhi.
He also added that by mid-2013 they would add higher education content on the Library and are in talks with international universities for partnering with content for the same. They are also in talks with Indira Gandhi National Open University for study materials for college-level education. aesha.datta@thehindu.co.in

IGNOU to set up a library for competitive examinations

It will be established at its regional centre at Sikkander Chavadi
A well-stocked library, exclusively for candidates preparing for competitive examinations, is being set up in the Regional Centre of Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) at Sikkander Chavadi here.
The study material of various courses offered by the university, which are considered helpful for competitive examinations such as for the Civil Services, will be available in the reference library.
M. Shanmugham, IGNOU Regional Director, Madurai Regional Centre, told The Hindu on Tuesday that the library would have books on various subjects which were prepared by the university and in great demand. “Since our study material are given only to students pursuing IGNOU courses, we thought of creating a library with a good collection of books so that others who are preparing for Civil Services or any other competitive examination shall also benefit,” he said.
The free library would be ready by July when the new academic year session begins. “We have collected the study material and sent them for binding. IGNOU's resource material on subjects such as public administration and history is popular. They are not available in the open market,” Dr. Shanmugham said.
Candidates who want to visit the reference library must show proof of registration or identity card for having applied for a competitive examination. The admissions for July session (2012-13 academic year) would begin in the next few days and go on till June 30. “We are taking several steps to increase the student enrolment for our courses. At the same time, our focus is also on employability and hence skill-based programmes are our priority,” he added.
Student support services were being enhanced in the Madurai region so as to create a good link between students and the university.
