The third focus area is related to open access, knowledge discovery and knowledge mobilization. Noolaham Foundation aims to support maximum online open access to all of its resources via an easy to use multilingual (default Tamil) platform. Currently, Noolaham Foundation is working on migrating the content from its various platforms into Islandora 8 powered next generation platform. Any authorized user from anywhere will be able to contribute in building the content. Further, the platform is envisioned as a research information system to help researchers/students/activists etc and function as an entry-point for interactions between intellectuals. Describing, classifying and organizing knowledge/information is critical for its discovery and use. Noolaham Foundation seeks to apply emerging library and archival science principles in its digital libraries and archives. The key idea behind knowledge mobilization is taking archives to the people. Taking the knowledge resources to the users and enabling its active use. Reference services, research support and online/offline knowledge outreach services are key knowledge mobilization oriented services.
