Recently while surfing the net I came across Bento Box Searching in libraries. It was quite intriguing to know this style of searching which is till now being used by google.
What is a Bento box?
Bento is traditional Japanese cuisine which holds rice, fish or meat, with pickled or cooked vegetables, usually in a box-shaped container.

Digital libraries, e-libraries, Kindle library all this sounds very interesting. With just one click one can have access to e-books, archives of one institute, or repositories of an institution. Publishers are also coming up with policy of pay per chapter on your mobile display. Recently Encyclopedia Britannica announced the launch of e-library in schools. As new technology is developing new modes of catering to the masses are also coming up.

So here’s the thing about Indian publishing: for all of this year, it’s been in the news – and it’s made big news.
In January, the Jaipur Literature Festival declared that it was going to expand beyond the Pink City to travel all the way to London and Colorado, and it did. In April, publisher Chiki Sarkar and four others resigned from Penguin Random House India to launch a new publishing house, Juggernaut, which will introduce pay-by-chapter reading on mobile platforms. In October, in addition to the countless (and counting!) literary festivals in the country, another one was held in – no, really – cyberspace.
