Pustakalya

025.04 — Information storage & retrieval
Say it in
your own
words.
Keyword search asks you to guess the phrase the author chose. Pustakalaya reads for meaning instead — so the question you actually have is enough to find the page that answers it.
A student asks

“why does a transformer core get hot even when nothing is plugged in?”

Electrical Machines, ch. 4, p.112 — hysteresis loss

IEEE Trans. Magn. 2019 — core loss at no load

Solved paper, GATE 2021, Q.34
020 — Library & information sciences
Full shelves,
empty search logs.
Most institutional collections are well stocked and barely used. The collection is rarely the problem — the way in is. Four things a keyword box can’t do:
01
Read the question, not the keywords
Intent, subject and reading level are all taken from how the question is phrased, then matched against meaning across every format you hold.
02
Summarise with the receipts

The gist of a chapter or a paper in seconds, every statement linked back to the page
it came from. Nothing unsourced.

03
Order the reading

Give it a topic and it sequences what you hold — foundations, then depth, then
practice — instead of returning a flat list.

04
Index what's already yours

Theses, notes and a decade of past papers come in during onboarding and sit under
the same search as everything else.

028.9 — Reading interests & habits
Read with
help in the
margin.
A quiet reader that keeps the assistant one column away — summaries, definitions and follow-up questions, without losing your place in the text.
Inline summaries and question-answering
Highlights and notes that follow you between devices
Citation export in APA, MLA and IEEE
