Dear Friends, Nasa opens up space image library Historic Photgraphs, film and Videos are available to the public http://www.iwr.co.uk/information-world-review/news/2222568/nasa-opens-space… Nasa is to make its huge collection of historic photographs, film and video available to the public for the first time.

The launch is the first step in a five-year partnership that will add millions of images and thousands of hours of video and audio content, with enhanced search and viewing capabilities and new user features. Over time, the integration of Nasaimages.org will become more seamless and comprehensive with the main Nasa site.

The content of the site covers all the diverse activities of America's space programme, including imagery from the Apollo missions, Hubble Space Telescope views of the universe and experimental aircraft past and present.

However, in the context of emerging era of knowledge society, the public libraries have arrived at a critical moment in their services. The key issue is - could public libraries be incorporated as key players in knowledge society. In the perception of general public, public libraries have traditionally been recognized as centres of popular reading materials, popular reference materials for community and business, or community information centres or community activities centres. But rarely public libraries have been considered and evaluated as serious centres for life long learning or self directed learning utilizing new technologies. In the context of emerging era of knowledge society, the need of the hour is to make public libraries as vibrant centres of learning and communication and as community hubs for people to access networked information. The public libraries need to complement formal education system by providing a resource base and to emerge as platform for public to participate in lifelong learning. Investment in human capital is foundation of success in knowledge-based global economy in this century. Thus, public libraries need to look for opportunities and services to facilitate life long learning. *The conference is going to provide a good opportunity to all stakeholders to discuss and debate the kind of issues that Indian public libraries are going to deal with in the context of knowledge based society in the next couple of years. *Conference Objectives* The purpose of this conference is to provide a platform to all stakeholders in public libraries to enable them to discuss and debate the current and emerging public library roles, evaluate the strengths and weakness of the public library system and the public libraries, and assess their preparedness to provide new services and facilities in the context of emerging knowledge society.
