by Dr. J. K. Vijayakumar 05 Oct '13

05 Oct '13

FYI. -----Original Message----- From: An informal open list set up by UKSG - Connecting the Information Community On Behalf Of Lotte Jorgensen Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2013 6:26 PM Subject: DOAJ reaches new milestones March 12th 2013 DOAJ reaches new milestones: We have just completed the transition to a new environment and launched a new platform with integrated functionality for sharing, exporting and enhanced search/browse functionality: at the article level, search results can be filtered by language and publication year and by license and publication fee; at the journal level, you can filter by subject, by country, by license and by publication fees. These facets will be developed further in the months to come. (Read more about our enhancements on our home page: www.doaj.org <http://www.doaj.org>.) We are also very proud to announce that the DOAJ has reached two important milestones: 1. For the first time since launch in 2003, more than 50% of the journals are providing metadata at article level.We will continue to work with the 2000+ publishers to increase this figure. 2. More than 1 million articles are now searchable in DOAJ which means more than 1 million article-level metadata entriesare available for harvesting!We expect this figure to increase significantly in the months to come. We continue to work with key stakeholders to agree on and implement new, tighter criteria for the inclusion of journals in the DOAJ: critieria that will address issues of quality and openness, as well as other kinds of information about the journals. We are very excited about these developments and we are grateful for the continued support from the community. We always need more support so we can continue to provide a better service, so please consider contributing: http://www.doaj.org/doaj?func=loadTemplate&template=supportDoaj&uiLanguage=… For more information, please contact Lars Bjørnshauge <mailto:lars@doaj.org>or Dom Mitchell <mailto:dom@doaj.org> The Directory of Open Access Journals is provided by IS4OA <http://www.is4oa.org>in cooperation with SemperTool <http://www.sempertool.dk>.

Dr Tapaaswi's superannuation
by jharavu 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

I saw the posting on Lis-Forum about Dr Tapaswi's superannuation. I have known Tapaswi since his DRTC days and later more intimately at NIO. He is one of the rare breeds in the Library and Information profession. He combines in himself unique combination of qualities: of leadership, professional competency, willingness to keep on learning, the fearlessness to experiment, and the wherewithal to build strong relationships with the users of his library and its services. Like all of us, products of time and space, one has to lay down one's office. I am sure NIO library staff and the scientists will miss him and his dynamism. I would like to convey my best wishes for days after his superannuation. If I know him well, then I do believe he will continue to make a contribution to whatever cause he chooses.

Some of these professionals dedicatedly work for the satisfaction of their patrons without publicizing their achievements and retire on their superannuation without notice of others. But young professionals should know about them and try to learn & emulate such achievements. Today on 31st July 2013, one of such librarian in CSIR setup is going to retire on the superannuation and needs to be mentioned. This write up is based on my close association with him over last 10 years. Dr. Murari P. Tapaswi, Chief Scientist (Librarian) is retiring today on his superannuation after 34 years of career in the library of CSIR-National Institute of Oceanography. He is specialized in Information Management & Dissemination and has actively participated in several projects such as Development of National Information Centre for Marine Sciences (DSIR-Project), Database of literatures on Indian Ocean and adjacent water (DSIR project), Database on Indian mangroves (MoEF Project) and other CSIR projects on libraries & information services. His work of computer applications for better library & information services had impressed UNESCO which put NIO library on the international map in 1985. Soon his vision and expertise was appreciated and India became the first developing country to be the part of the prestigious Aquatic Science and Fisheries Information System of Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), UN in 1989. Dr. Tapaswi was the only library & information scientist from a developing country who was selected as a member of the group of experts in Marine Information Management (1992-2008) to help the 120-member Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) of UNESCO in development of marine information products. He was selected as the chairman of experts group for two times (1999-2004) for the development of Ocean Data & Information Network in African countries. He was the member of several national committees on e-resource negotiation, Open Access Policy, etc. Dr. Tapaswi, an alumnus of DRTC was always proactive in using technology for better services in library. An expert in CDS/ISIS with Pascal programming had developed himself automation package for NIO library during 1990s when it was a dream in India to automate the library services. The backbone of the automation package is still in use with modification in Linux OS with browser based facilities. He is very skillful in ?Bibliometrics/Scientometrics? analysis using CDS/ISIS - Pascal programming and this skill was used extensively in the institute by authorities & researchers. His supervision & management has established the institute website (http://www.nio.org [1]) as a top ranked among the oceanographic institutions all over the world. As a mentor, he has guided the Digital Repository Service of NIO (http://drs.nio.org [2]) to 1st ranked institutional repository in India (267th ranking in World). His role as Public Information Officer and contact person for press, media and parlia! ment questions are notable and such challenges taken by library professional are rare. He has visited several countries like Australia, Belgium, Bermuda, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Thailand, UK and USA for his professional assignments. There are more than 10 research papers & 3 books to his credit. Those who are associated with him know well about his sincerity, discipline and hard work. Main motto of such professionals is ?User satisfaction? than any award or recognition. On behalf of CSIR library & Information professionals, I wish him all the best.
