dc.description.abstractAbstract The term information, in itself, is nebulous, that indeed comes in different formats, different operations, having various meanings with many diverse applications. It could be understood in numerous ways depending on the environment, perspective, interpretation and criteria espoused in viewing it. The information science professionals are greatly concerned with the word, information, specifically on their creation, selection, organization, storage, transformation, transition, utilization and most importantly their management as vital resources. Information storage, retrieval system and all other information infrastructure that constitute information system deals with information as a resource that can be stored in an actual sense of physical and virtual collection. Information resources in the ambit of information resources management cannot achieve anything except people do something with it either by examining, categorizing, or describing it, but in the end, they understood, rebut, alter or do all sorts of manipulation to the dataset or information. Meanwhile, all this interpretation and manipulation constitute the hallmark of information management.en_US
