Abstract
Open Government Learning Resources encompasses resource materials, tools and practices that are free of legal, financial and technical barriers and can be fully used, shared and adapted in the digital environment, which expanding educational opportunities is more possible now than it has ever been before. Through the Internet, learners can find information instantly on virtually any topic, teachers can share their knowledge with students on another continent almost as easily as in their own classroom, and educational materials can be disseminated to a worldwide audience at virtually no marginal cost, which allows anyone to freely use, adapt and share the resource—anytime, anywhere. So, this study examines the use of open government learning resources by the research scholars of university of north Bengal to fulfil their information needs.
