Dear Jadav
Please read the books available on subjects. It is very simple that you will put query here, people will reply, but please read the books try to get the answers by your own. If you are a library science professional, you should not be depended for such basic question.
If you want to become a player in this filed...try to give answers rather than the asking.Just, it is my way of working. Don't take it personal please.
