The Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, headquartered in Chennai, India, has placed on the web material for 79 courses that comprise the Bachelor of Vet Science program ( a professional degree). These materials are made available on a Moodle platform. Guest can browse the materials freely and the URL is: http://www.elearnvet.net. Like with all course materials published with the support of Federal/Central Government, there is no unambiguous statement on the unrestricted re-use of this material. An analysis of entries in the DOER catalogue service of COL (http://doer.col.org) reveals that this is the first and comprehensive collection of course material coming from a professional degree program in the veterinary sector.
