High Court librarianship, i.e. the librarianship in judicial institutions at apex level in a state is different from librarianship in any other discipline. This aspect is more appropriately explained by Prof. Igor I. Kavass, when he says that “the reason for court libraries being different from other types of libraries is that they serve a profession which is literally unable to exercise its work without the use of books.” A high court librarian has to furnish the desired informative services at once because the case is being argued in the state apex Court and desired information is needed in the course of the argument. Because of this reason, the high court libraries have to suffice with sufficient budgets so that they must develop their tools and expertise to provide the desired services instantly.

When we are planning for Digital Library System immediately it goes to DSpace Software, which is widely using Open Source software. Hewlett-Packard Laboratories and MIT Libraries collaborated on a two-year project to develop DSpace, an open source repository system for the capture and preservation of digital materials. DSpace was designed as a production quality system offering the breadth of functionality required for a long-term institutional repository in a relatively simple fashion. There are many institutions are using DSpace Digital Library System, the article presents the usage of DSpace in India.

Due to the rise in popularity and consideration of Open Source Software in all sectors from education to government to business, it has become critical for all decision makers to understand the concept, philosophy, merits, demerits, availability and implications of OSS for their organizations. In a library environment, budget, time and staffing either predicate or prevent technology initiatives. Today, while users' needs are growing, library budgets are shrinking. In this context of an ever increasing need for technology and ever decreasing resources to acquire these new products, Open Source Software offers libraries an attractive solution.
