IRINS is web-based Research Information Management (RIM) service which contains the profiles of the staff/faculties with their publication details and Citation metrics categorized into their respective departments. IRINS NITT Profile is being updated and maintained by the Central Library.
The Ministry of Education, GoI, has asked Institute to upload full text of the PhD thesis on Shodhganga (a reservoir of Indian Ph.D theses). In this regard the Central Library has taken up the initiative to upload & maintain the Ph.D. Thesis of the NITT researchers into the Shodhganga repository. Currently, we have uploaded the thesis of the researchers awarded in the year 2022-23.
Central Library is providing remote access to all subscribed e-resources for Faculties, PDFs, and Research Scholars through MyLOFT application. Research Scholars need to send a request email to librarian@nitt.edu for their account creation. After your account is created, a welcome mail reaches your institute affiliated email id (if not found, check Spam folder/ MyLOFT in Junk Summary). There is an option to “Set Password” in that mail. Click on the option. It will open a new tab and will ask you to create a password.
