Lecture at Central Library, JNU on August 27, 2013 at 3.00 pm
by Dr. Ramesh C Gaur 05 Nov '13

05 Nov '13

Central Library Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) cordially invites you to the 12th Library Lecture Series and Outreach Programme Topic: Building a Print Fanzine Collection in a Digital Era Speaker : Ms. Isabel Ayres Maringelli Walter Wey Library Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo http://biblioteca.pinacoteca.org.br:9090/site/ imaringelli(a)pinacoteca.org.br Date: Tuesday, 27th August 2013 at 3:00 pm Venue: Committee Room, Central Library, JNU, New Delhi About the Topic: Building a Print Fanzine Collection in a Digital Era. Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo is the oldest art museum in São Paulo, SP, Brazil. The Walter Wey Library was created in 1959 to support the Museum staff: curators, researchers and conservators but today the majority of patrons is graduate students. The Library's collection is rich in representing Brazilian artists and contains materials pertinent to the Museum's art collections but it includes materials from all over the world. The Library has just started a new section that is formed by fanzines. Although there are many other libraries that hold these collections they are not very familiar either to users or to librarians. The library became interested in starting this collection because we have received many fanzines made by visual artists, illustrators, poets and comic writers. Fanzines are self-published booklets, created by hand or using low-cost printing technologies that allow to creator to take part in the whole production process. Although there are some E-zines being produced, some authors claims that fanzines could be considered as means of cultural resistance, in terms that they are printed and usually handmade, in opposition to all social media and digital sources for publishing. By bringing these materials into an art public Library Pinacoteca seeks to invite more people to read them. The circulation of fanzines could be restricted to other places than public museum and they are so original and creative that we decided to keep them and make them available to users. We expect to do a research to find relationships with contemporary art and also with other disciplines as Communication Theory and Information Science. About the Speaker: Isabel Ayres Maringelli was born in São Paulo, SP, Brazil, 1969. She has a Master of Business Administration - MBA in Cultural Economics (2009) – FGV – Getulio Vargas Foundation and a Graduate Degree and Bachelor's in Information and Documentation Science – Sociology and Political School São Paulo Foundation (1993). She is the Coordinator of Library Walter Wey, Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo, the oldest art museum in the city, since 2009. Prior to this she has worked for more than 20 year in the Business Administration in the Getulio Vargas Foundation. She has published some articles in the field of use of open source software for library automation and libraries portals and has also been working with exhibitions productions. Please make it convenient to attend.

04 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>.

Call for Papers: On Redefining Libraries in Electronic Age (RLEA-2013)- National Conference at VTU, Belgaum
by Dr.K.R. Mulla 31 Aug '13

31 Aug '13

Dear Sir/Madam, I am happy to inform you that, Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) is organising a National Conference on “Redefining Libraries in Electronic Age (RLEA-2013)”, in the month of November, 2013. At VTU Campus, Belgaum. The role of Library and Information Centers in the present era is ever changing and the traditional services have taken a new shape in the light of developments in Information and Communication Technologies [ICTs]. Physical locations for ease of access to Library resources no longer an issue. Now Libraries are facilitating their users with 24 x 7 access using Internet Technology. Today physical use of libraries is declining drastically and most of the Librarians are expressing their concern over this development and are feeling insecure due to fall of user attendance in Libraries. This need not be the concern of Librarians. Today the users are techno-savvy and access more information than the earlier users. The libraries used to supply limited reference resources to their users earlier, but today’s users will get multiple resources on their fingertips. Hence the concern for Librarians of these days should be to redefine the role of Libraries in reaching out the right information to the right user at a right time. Hence a National Conference has been organized to provide a platform for discussing following main issues: Conference Theme: Redefining Libraries in Electronic Age Sub Themes: 1. Redefining library building • Effective utilization of physical space • Additional facilities for library users 2. Redefining the organization of knowledge • Classification • Cataloguing 3. Redefining collection development, Information sources and services • Collection development • Information sources and services • Electronic sources and services • Evaluation of Information Sources • Library networking and consortia • Open Access 4. Redefining the management of library and information centers • Planning • HRM & HRD • Financial management and budgeting • TQM • Knowledge management • Leadership and Public relations & Advocacy • Soft skills for librarians 5. Redefining the ICT applications for libraries • Integrated Library Management Software [ILMS] • Digital library technologies and digital preservation • Content Management Systems [CMS] • Internet technology • Open Source Software • Web 2.0 applications • Mobile technologies 6. Redefining the User Education • Information Literacy • Computer literacy • Digital literacy 7. Redefining the information society and information science • Dr.S.R. Ranganathan’s school of thought • Relevance of Five Laws of Library Science in the present Internet era 8. Redefining LIS education • LIS as an Applied science • LIS curriculum • Collaboration of Library and LIS departments • Library as a laboratory for LIS education • Online Courses in LIS • Open Educational Resources (OER) How to submit papers: Papers using the following author guidelines may please be submitted over email at: krmulla(a)vtu.ac.in or krmulla(a)gmail.com on or before the due date. • Submit unpublished and original papers in MS-Word .doc or .docx format using Double Space and Times new Roman 12 font size • Paper should have Title, Author/s name, Affiliation with complete address and E-mail address of authors, Abstract maximum of one paragraph and list of main Keywords. • References need to be as per APA (American Psychological Association) reference/citation Style guide • Tables or figures need to be incorporated in the text at appropriate places and numbered serially • Size of the paper (A4 size) between 4 and 8 pages Who can Participate?
