The revolution in information and E-Resources is registering significant changes everywhere and have been playing substantial role in library and information systems ever since its inception. The advancement of E-Resources during recent years has given libraries a powerful new resource to support learning and research with availability of both forms of journals in the library. Thus it has become necessary to evaluate effectiveness of E-Resources. Many E-Resources
