In all the activities, such as excellence in education, innovation, research, development, and economic advancements, technology development, employment, etc., open and free access to scholarly information is of vital importance. The paper offers the meaning of Democratization, Open Access and Open Access Publishing, their importance in building a Knowledge Society and thereby a knowledge Economy.

    Tracking the Evolution of Research Themes in CALIBER Conferences: A Topic Modelling Approach Using LDA
    (INFLIBNET Centre Gandhinagar, 2025-12-08) Chakraborty, Subhayan; Verma, Manoj Kumar
    The Convention on Automation of Libraries in Education and Research Institutions (CALIBER) has made a significant contribution to Indian Library and Information Science research and dissemination. The present study aims to analyze the evolving landscape of LIS research presented at five CALIBER conferences (2013, 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2022). We apply LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation) to identify key latent research topics from full-text papers published in these conferences. The study also uncovers trends and thematic evolution in those research topics over time. The results reveal a steady research focus on areas such as ‘Open-access and Academic Publishing’ and ‘Use of Library Resources’. It also highlights some emerging topics, e.g., ‘Technology-Enhanced Library Services’. The study highlights underexplored areas and suggests directions for future LIS research in India. The paper will benefit future researchers and LIS professionals in understanding the LIS research landscape in India
