The role of academic libraries in the context of national education policy (NEP)-2020

Abstract

The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 aims to transform the education system in India by focusing on holistic and multi-disciplinary education, promoting critical thinking, and creating a learner-centric approach. In this context, academic libraries have an important role to play in supporting the NEP's objectives. This structured abstract is based on a review of the literature related to the role of academic libraries in supporting the NEP 2020. Academic libraries have a significant role in supporting the NEP 2020 by providing access to diverse and quality resources, promoting lifelong learning, facilitating research and innovation, fostering collaboration and networking, and enhancing digital literacy skills. Academic libraries can also contribute to the NEP's goal of promoting multilingualism by providing resources in different languages. Academic libraries have a crucial role to play in supporting the NEP 2020's vision of transforming the education system in India. By providing access to diverse and quality resources, promoting lifelong learning, and enhancing digital literacy skills, academic libraries can contribute to creating a learner-centric and holistic education system.
