Quick Response (QR Code), Matrix barcode. It is also known as 2D barcodes, 2D codes or mobile codes. The QR codes typically appears as a small white square with black geometric shapes, thugh colored QR codes are also now being used. The Information hold by QR codes can be a URL, a Phone number, a sms messages, a V-card or the any text. These codes are referred as QR codes because these allow contents to be content to be decoded at high speed.

When did QR code invent?

The QR code system was invented in 1994 by Masahiro Hara from the Japanese company Denso Wave (Broko, 2011). The initial designed was influenced by the black and white pieces on a Go board. Its purpose was to track vehicles during the manufacturing; It was designed to allow high speed component scanning.

Q 3 what are the types of QR Codes?

There are two types of QR Code (Pathak, 2017)

  1. Static QR codes
  2. Dynamic QR codes
  1. Static QR codes

Static QR codes are printed only one time and cannot be editable.

2. Dynamic QR codes

Dynamic QR codes are editable and changeable any time even after scanned and printing.

Q 4 What are the advantages of QR Code?

The following important advantages of QR codes.

  1. Free and open source technology

QR codes are free and open source without paying any commercial and licensing charges.

2. High Storage capacity of the data

It has high storage capacity of the data so user can storage maximum data as per the required need.

3. Small space required for printing

QR codes occupy small space for the printing.

4. Reading capability of QR code from any direction

QR code can read from any direction, it can be read from scanner, cell phones, tablets and smart watches as well capability to restore partially data or content of damaged QR codes.

5. Internet Facility

QR codes also internet facilities to connect Wi-fi connectivity and etc.

6. Printing Process

QR code Printing process is so fast and least space occupy and can print 100 codes in a minutes and it can be readable through scanner and mobile camera as well.

DOIs are in wide use mainly to identify academic, professional, and government information, such as journal articles, Books Chapters, Research reports, data sets, and official publications. Sometimes DOI also refers for commercial videos.

Q 2 When did DOI services is began?

The DOI was officially launched at the Frankfurt Book Fair in October 1997 (Anon, 1997). First DOI based article was published in 2000.

Q 3 Which characters/digits are used in DOI?

DOI consist Alpha Numeric characters. A DOI consists of a publisher ID* (prefix) and an item ID (suffix), separated by a forward slash (/). For example, the DOI for one of Emerald journal articles would look like this:

Prefix: 10.1108

Suffix: LHTN-10-2021-0065

Complete DOI: doi/10.1108/LHTN-10-2021-0065

Q4 Why do publishers/organizations use DOI?

  1. DOI promote the research work of the Authors/Researchers
  2. DOI increase the impact of research work of the scholar and publishers
  3. Ensure the international standardization of articles.
  4. Quick Access identification of published articles even the URL (Web address) has changed.
  5. To gain better research items articles and books chapter visibility and citation count.
  6. Universal Digital identification of scholarly work.

There are two major tools which are used in libraries to represent library data visualization.
1) Infographics
2) Dashboard
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, an infographic (or information graphic) is “a visual representation of information or data”.
An infographic is a collection of imagery, charts, and minimal text that gives an easy-to-understand overview of a topic.

A data dashboard is an information management tool that visually tracks, analyzes and displays key performance indicators (KPI), metrics and key data points to monitor the health of a business, department or specific process.
