Why CeRA is not accessible outside the campus or at home?
All resources subscribed through CeRA are IP authenticated. Full
Text access to articles is retrievable only within the campus of the
Institute/University connected internally by LAN. Hence, outside the campus access
only upto Abstracts level can be obtained.

How to become a member of CeRA ?
An individual researcher cannot join as a member of CeRA. CeRA is for an
institution in NARS. Hence any researcher desiring to access resources through
CeRA, is requested to contact the concerned librarian. This is applicable for
all regional centre/colleges of the main campus of an Institute/University.

Can you conduct a workshop in our institute ?
Yes, it is possible, however not exclusively for one institution.
As per M&E committee of CeRA, trainings/workshops on e-resources can be
conducted at a location in which scientist/teachers from adjoining CeRA members
can also participate.
