Conference
by Khalid Nadeem Khan 21 Nov '13

21 Nov '13

Dear Sir/Madam Greeting! Trust it finds you well. You will be pleased to know that a two day national conference is being organized by University of Delhi South Campus jointly with Society for Library Professionals in association with United Nations Information Centre-India and Special Library Association-Asian Chapter on Friday-Saturday, 7-8 February 2014 . The theme of conference is “From Brick to Click: Transforming Libraries into Social Spaces” and the conference aims to address the main issues of concern within the framework of transformation which is taking place with the emergence of distributed forms of information in a double click environment. We believe that the role of physical libraries have changed considerably over the last ten years, to reflect changes in the nature of education. The importance of collaboration, group work and communication in teaching and learning are widely recognised and the central role of the library as a repository of facts and information is changing. While it is still important to have this kind of resource, it has proven to be a diminishing draw in terms of library traffic. The notion of transforming libraries into social and cultural spaces is an expansive role for the future library not only serving as an information resource, but much more, with the exact mission and goals evolving and changing over time. A culture-based library is one that taps into the spirit of the community, assessing priorities and providing resources to support the things deemed most important. Libraries are in a unique position to experiment with creative spaces so the future role of the library can define itself. The conference program will include plenary sessions, invited and contributed papers, poster sessions, product presentations, panel discussions and an exhibition. A series of parallel sessions will be held offering delegates a wide range of in depth presentations by leading national and international experts. In view of your eminence and contribution to LIS profession, the core committee of the conference seeks your support in organising the conference successfully as its very distinguished organising committee member . We also seek your kind presence during the conference as our distinguished guest. We are sure that you will accept our invitation and extend your support to the event and enrich us by your invaluable advice and experience from time to time so that conference achieves its objectives and concludes with purposefully.

Dear Moderator pls circulate. PLOS PROFITS PROMPT REVAMP The Public Library of Science (PLOS) is not accustomed to having spare cash. Founded by scientists in 2000 as a grass-roots organization advocating open scholarly communication, PLOS reinvented itself as an open-access journal publisher in 2003 with the help of philanthropic grants. It has spent much of the decade since then "skating on thin financial ice", in the words of co-founder and board member Michael Eisen, a geneticist at the University of California, Berkeley.
