Dear Friends, We have been using the LIBSYS software in our library. We are adding the new books and editing some old records if there is error or change. After this we are doing manually rebuild inverted files and update inverted files for indexing. Instead of doing this process manually there is another option in LIBSYS called Schedule Processes. If you set the time for updating, for example 10 p.m., everyday it has to do this update automatically. We would like to know from people those who are using the LIBSYS, any of you used this utility and also what is your experience in installing the utility and the problems if any?

Ministry would try and introduce the Bill for the creation of the National Commission for Higher Education and Research (NCHER)
by Goutam Biswas 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

New Delhi: A draft cabinet note for the creation of an overarching regulatory body in the higher education section has been prepared and circulated across ministries for consultations, Kapil Sibal, Union minister for human resource development, said at a press conference on Thursday. Setting agenda: Union minister for HRD Kapil Sibal, with MoS Purandeshwari Devi, briefs the press in New Delhi on Thursday. Subhav Shukla / PTI Sibal said the ministry would try and introduce the Bill for the creation of the National Commission for Higher Education and Research (NCHER) in the next session of Parliament. A task force to aid and suggest measures for setting up a regulatory body has also been set up. NCHER is being set up on the recommendation of the Yash Pal committee. The committee, which was set up to suggest reforms in the higher education sector, had also recommended that the commission be a constitutional entity to ensure the absolute autonomy along the lines of the Election Commission of India. The suggestion has however been rejected by the Prime Minister’s Office, which has been studying the ministry’s proposal to amend the Constitution for setting up the regulatory body, saying the it should not be used for regulatory purposes, a source said. “It has been a setback because our report (on NCHER) wanted to leave no loopholes that would put the regulator at the risk of political influence,’’ a member of the Yash Pal committee said, requesting anonymity. NCHER, once set up, will replace and subsume the University Grants Commission, the All India Council for Technical Education and the National Council for Teachers Education, which have thus far regulated the higher education sector in India. The HRD ministry had earlier proposed bringing a Bill to set up the NCHER after the Constitution was amended. -- Goutam Biswas University Research Fellow, Department of Library and Information Science, University of Kalyani, Nadia, West Bengal,India.

Dimensions of Leadership for Human Excellence Within our multicultural competitive societies the role of education is vital importance to the future of individual and collective development of the world. Leadership is key to the transformation and development of Humanity. 4.
