Open access to knowledge and information as we may see from this listing has a long way to go.With the availability of advanced ICTs and by building up the necessary infrastructure particularly in academic institutes, this will becomes an active contributor to global open-access literature. It is largely achievable is a country where policy frameworks, institutional frameworks, information infrastructure, trained manpower, and financial resources are adequately available. The information infrastructure in a country consists of telecommunications network, strategic information systems, policy and legal frameworks affecting their deployment, as well as skilled human resources needed to develop and use it.This paper This paper describes the importance of open source software and its characteristics, and need for the open Source software and procedure.
