10. CONCLUSION<br />

Cyber crimes in India are slowly evolving from a simple e-mail crime to more serious<br />

crimes like hacking and source code theft. It is a known fact that given the unrestricted number<br />

of free Web sites, the Internet is undeniably open to exploitation. Further, cases of spam,<br />

hacking, cyber stalking and email fraud are rampant and, although cyber crimes cells have been<br />

set up in major cities, the problem is that most cases remain unreported due to a lack of<br />

awareness.<br />

There<strong>for</strong>e, the LIS professionals should be aware of the variety of cyber crimes taking<br />

place across the globe and they should be prepared to combat such crimes in the library<br />

environment.<br />
