It was started as a project of the India International Centre in January 1988 with the initial, financial and technical assistance by National Information System for Science and Technology (NISSAT), Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, Govt. of India. It was registered as a society in June 1992 under the Societies Registration Act of 1860 and is currently being promoted by the National Informatics Centre (NIC), Planning Commission, Govt. of India and India International Centre, New Delhi.

a) To promote sharing of resources among the libraries by developing a network of libraries, by collecting, storing and disseminating information and by offering computerized services to the users.

b) To offer guidance to the member libraries on cataloguing database services, circulation, acquisition, serials control, online services, selection of hardware and software, etc.

c) To coordinate efforts for suitable collection development and for reducing unnecessary duplication wherever possible.

d) To establish a referral centre, to monitor and/or facilitate catalogue search and maintain a central online union catalogue of books, serials, and non-book materials of all the participating libraries.

In 1991, a courier service was started on contract basis with a private agency for inter library lending among the participating libraries but it was not very effective. Later, DELNET introduced its own courier service with the financial help of NIC. The service is well used.

iv) Development of Software: Earlier DELNET provided CDS/ISIS software for storage and retrival purpose, developed by UNESCO through NISSAT, but presently it is distributing its own software DELSIS. It has also created software, viz. DELDOS and DEL-WINDOWS for creating MARC records.

DELNET is the first network which provides Email service in this country that was started in 1991. It provides this service through National Information Centre (NIC). The future of DELNET is very promising. Its membership with India and outside India is going to take a quantum jump. The DELNET databases are growing in number and size and as a variety of information on South Asia these are becoming available through DELNET. It is expected that all institutions outside India specializing in South Asian studies will take DELNET membership.
