KM Cyberary is a Gateway to Knowledge Resources

The literature about portals or gateways exists in huge volume. However, only a limited number of articles have addressed the topic of knowledge portals applying various concepts of arrangement to organizing the information on the portals. Likewise, not many authors have written about knowledge portals. So, this study helps to understand one such knowledge portal and its features, coverage of subjects, and so forth. Information is scattered in various Web sites on the ocean of the Internet. The Internet contains a huge amount of global information. To access the required, specific, relevant and quality information is not an easy task. Thus as a solution to the problem many tools came on the scene like search engines, subject catalogues and directories, virtual libraries, gateways, and so forth. The systematic process of finding, selecting, organising, distilling and presenting information, improves an user’s comprehension in a specific area of interest (Bhojaraju, 2005). Knowledge portals in turn represent these attributes.
