It is unfortunate that while computer professionals are working in areas were library people should have been working. We are still looking for the areas to work in. Take for example, while we were beating about the bushes of "Bibliometrics" some students created GOOGLE using the same principle of "citations" (links here). While we were debating on utility of classification, some other students created "YAHOO". And still others are building up Open Directory Project (http://www.dmoz.org/). Classifiaction does not mean numbers we put on the spine of the books; dear friends, it is putting things in helpful sequence. Information technology is in use in every aspect of life. Even some medical professionals left their profession to join IT Rat Race. I know some for example http://www.indmedica.com. But should this mean every professional follow the same path. Today we have to answer, the real tough question? Do we really have something to offer? Something Unique. What is our USP...? If Yes, then why we are in hibernation. If No, then why we are pretending...? Why not to leave the stage to Computer Professionals who otherwise are today "Plenty in Supply, Less in Demand".

Areas in LIS Res
by afsar bukhari 11 Aug '03

11 Aug '03

Dear Friends This is in response to a recent mail in lisforum regarding the areas of research in LIS LIS, since its inception has been dealing with organizing information so as to make it available to the users in more efficient manner. Information seems like dirt; its everywhere you look, accumulates in piles, and is challenging to organize for easy retrieval. It is this very nature of info that has always threatened LIS professionals and forced them to come up with innovative approaches towards its effective organization. With the advent of WWW, organizing info is giving tough time for all LIS professionals. Newer and newer approaches are being tried, but still more and more are required to be done! Maurice B. Line has identified 10 key areas related to Info Res in the MILLENIUM 1. Internet & WWW (info retrieval aspects) 2. Search engines & alogorithms 3. Bibliographic control on the internet 4. User interface including common user interface,natural language interface etc. 5. User needs or requirement analysis 6. Info seeking behaviour of users and cognitive approach 7. Digital Libraries 8. Summarization & representation of information 9. Visual information 10. Intelligent Information Retrieval including intelligent agents All the best Bukhari Librarian Shantha Biotechnics Pvt Ltd ___________________________________________________ Download the hottest & happening ringtones here!

Library standards
by geitc, kchelpdesk (CORP, GEITC) 11 Aug '03

11 Aug '03

Dear All, I wish to know what are all international standards exists are available in field of LISc. viz for bibliographical exchange, other data related to library services and functions. ISO 2407 : Std for bibliographic data exchange. ISO 2789 : Std for International library statistics ISO DIS 10160: Documentation-Interlibrary loan service definition ISO DIS 10161:Documentation-Interlibrary loan service protocol definition ISO DIS 10162:Documentation-Application service for information's systems search, retrieve and update protocol specification is there any other standard to other services also. Second thing I wanted to know as there is standard for Bibliographic data exchange. is there any standard specification for exchange of other data, such as circulation, serials holding etc... . This I feel very important as libraries are growing and adopting different soft wares, and as the years pass one library may feel it is not comfort with the software it has adopted. It wishes to change over to another software, in that case is it possible to get all the data that the present software holds, will be exported to new software which the library wants to switch over to. Where in we can get all member records, there usage statistics, or present holding. as these are vital which a library can't recreate again. is there a solution to this problem are any other way it is been done. Where can i get details regarding above matter. I will be happy to know. Thanks and regards, Chidananda Chidananda B G Technical information Assistant Knowledge Centre John F Welch Technology Centre Export Promotion Industrial Park, Phase-2 Hoodi Village, Whitefield Road Bangalore, INDIA-560 066 ( Direct: +91-80-503 2668)

NYTimes.com Article: Open Access to Scientific Research
by arun＠mssrf.res.in 07 Aug '03

07 Aug '03

This article from NYTimes.com has been sent to you by arun(a)mssrf.res.in. Here is an editorial in New York Times on open access. Arun arun(a)mssrf.res.in /-------------------- advertisement -----------------------\ Explore more of Starbucks at Starbucks.com. http://www.starbucks.com/default.asp?ci=1015 \----------------------------------------------------------/ Open Access to Scientific Research August 7, 2003 A number of influential scientists have begun to argue that the cost of research publications has grown so large that it impedes the distribution of knowledge. Some subscriptions cost thousands of dollars per year, and those journals are usually available online only to subscribers. This looks less like dissemination than restriction, especially if it is measured against the potential access offered by the Internet. That is why a coalition led by Dr. Harold Varmus, the former director of the National Institutes of Health, is creating a new model, called the Public Library of Science. Several years ago Dr. Varmus's group issued an open letter, signed by some 30,000 colleagues, calling on the publishers of scientific journals to make their archived research articles freely available online. Most journals declined, so they would not undercut the profitable business of selling expensive subscriptions to libraries. But there is a basic inequity when much of the research has been financed by public money. The Public Library of Science plans to confront that inequity by establishing a new series of peer-reviewed journals that will be freely available on the Internet. The first ones, published this October, will be PLoS Biology and PLoS Medicine. The aim is to create a freer flow of data about research and results. The journals will pay for themselves by charging a small fee to the organizations and institutions that support the research. Most of us, admittedly, will not have much use for free access to new discoveries in, say, particle physics. But it is a different matter when it comes to medical research. Popular nostrums abound on the Web, but it can be very hard, if not impossible, to find the results of properly vetted, taxpayer-financed science - and in some cases it can be hard for your doctor to find them, too. The Public Library of Science could help change all that, creating open access to research. The publishers of scientific journals are naturally skeptical, but the real test will come in the marketplace of ideas. What will matter this fall, when the new journals make their debut, is how many scientists choose to publish in them rather than in the journals traditionally deemed the most prestigious in their disciplines. http://www.nytimes.com/2003/08/07/opinion/07THU3.html?ex=1061257104&ei=1&en… --------------------------------- Get Home Delivery of The New York Times Newspaper.

Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2003 18:14:16 -0700 From: Dr. Ramesh C. Gaur <rcgaur(a)tifr.res.in> Sorry for crossposting, if any; "Reengineering Library and Information Services Process, People & Technology" by Ramesh C. Gaur Librarian, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai ---------- Allied PublishersPrivate Limited, Mumbai. pp. 304. Price Rs. 500/- Some Comments About the Book To me, it is a first research contribution of its kind from India. Therefore, LIS professionals in academic as well as professional circles will benefit a great deal, in integrating theoretical as well as practical aspects of the subject, in their own contexts. - Dr. Roshan L. Raina, Professor, IIM, Lucknow The present digital networked environment has changed the whole structure of 'knowledge organizations', i.e., libraries. The pace of such changes is very fast. To cope up wuth above changes, it requires a radical change in our thinking, in our organization, in our people, and in the usage of technologies. And this radical change is possible by way of re-engineering only. It is a guide book for librarians and library planners and gives us a very thorough understanding of the reengeeneering process. - Dr. Jagdish Arora, Coordinator, INDEST Consortium, Librarian, IIT, Bombay Today's librarian works in a hybrid environment and his role is more of pulling together the various channels of information, package the relevant bits and present it to the user. This calls for a totally fresh look at the professional routes and roadmap. Dr. Ramesh C Gaur is one of the pioneers in applying the principles of re-engineering in the context of librarianship in India. I welcome this publication which makes a significant contribution to professional literature. - Dr. Mishwara Bhat, Head of Library Services, BITS, Pilani 'Re-engineering Library and information services' by D. Ramesh Gaur is indeed a welcome addition to the library & information science literature in the country. The book portrays a vivid and candid picture about the prevailing status of the libraries under study and gives clear cut BPR as well as transformation guidelines they should adapt/adopt/absorb if they want to be relevant, reliable and context sensitive. As such the model could be emulated by any modern library/information center in the country. - M G Sreekumar, Librarian & Head, CDDL, IIT, Kozhikode The author places the responsibility for change in the way of working of libraries in the context of change in information environment coupled with changing information seeking patterns of users in the electronic environment. To cope up with issues posed by evolution and revolution in Information technology such as Internet and Intranet revolution, Web publishing, Electronic publishing, and other information technological innovations, etc. a fine-tuning of the operations and activities of libraries and their information services is required. This is possible by way of re-engineering library and information services as explained in this book. The book provides a step-by-step guide about the re-engineering of libraries. - Usha Mujoo-Munshi, Head, Library and Informatics Centre, INSA, New Delhi About the Book This study presents a report on the effort to bring forth the transition of a traditional library service, mainly relying on paper preservation and local diffusion, to a modern information centre, whose main goal is putting final users in contact with the information needed, whether it is local or remote, on paper or stored digitally. To cope up with issues such as Internet and Intranet revolution, Web publishing, Electronic publishing, and other information technological innovations, etc. a fine-tuning of the operations and activities of libraries and their information services is required. This study describes how this transition may be achieved through a process of re-engineering that involves staff tasks, available space, available resources, and choice of tools. The book is a first attempt towards an indepth study on applications of "Reengineering Management" to Libraries. This book is focused on the re-engineering of Library and Information services in which present state of management libraries in India has been discussed. On the basis of findings of the study, various solutions have been suggested. A case study of "Re-engineering of library of IMT, Ghaziabad has been presented. A comparative study of thirteen management libraries of NCR, has also been undertaken. The suggested "re-engineering framework" - a model for reengineering of libraries, is a useful outcome of this study. The primary beneficiary of this book would be the all libraries and information centers who are planning to improve their library and information services by way of reengineering. The head of the institutions, librarians, library staff and all policy planners, who plan, monitor, and use library and information services should be able to understand the basic principles of re-engineering management and use the proposed re-engineering framework to improve their library and information services. The case study will help librarians to prepare a plan for the reengineering of their libraries. The academia and researchers will find it as a basis for further application in other libraries too.
