Dear Mr. Vinod Kumar Mishra, Congratulations to you as Author of Book on ......Koha LMS... and all Editors of Volume on ERM... Koha has become a very popular LMS in India too. Many libraries in the country are in the process of adopting Koha or migrating from other LMSs to Koha. You have good experience of implementing Koha in many libraries. Your contribution will go a long way for those planning to automate their libraries using Koha. The data migrarion is the biggest challenge for those planning to switch over to Koha from other systems. You have dedicated a chapter on this issue. I am sure your book on Koha will find a place on Book shelf of all librarians and their libraries.

INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Documentation Research & Training Centre 8th Mile, Mysore Road, RVCE Post Bangalore, 560 059 SEMINAR-5 Data Privacy and Protection in Digital Age Abstract: Privacy is the ability of an individual or group to seclude themselves, or information about themselves, and thereby express themselves selectively. In this Digital age, privacy is a major issue as every aspect of our personal and professional lives have been invaded by the Information Technologies. With the advent of Big Data and Internet of Things, a large amount of data is collected from the users and then analysed to provide individual specific services and even going to the extent of predicting what they want in the future. There are privacy concerns regarding how Businesses and Internet websites collect and use the personal data to provide the users with content according to their individual needs. Here the privacy is not the only concern, data security and protection are also major issues. The domain of Privacy partially overlaps with Security and Protection. In this seminar, the various frameworks regarding data privacy and data protection shall be discussed along with the data protection laws that exist followed by the various data anonymization techniques to anonymize data. The issues and challenges and how they affect the users privacy will also be discussed. Speaker : Sagar Gajbe Date: 06-10-2016 Time: 2 p.m. Venue: DRTC Class Room (G-21), ISI Bangalore. All are cordially invited. Coordinator Dr. Biswanath Dutta -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Google Translator

Google Translator becomes more accurate Washington Post: Google Translate is getting really, really accurate <https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/innovations/wp/2016/10/03/google-transl…>. "Last week, Google launched an updated translation tool that utilizes sophisticated artificial intelligence to produce startlingly accurate language translations. While the tool has been used to successfully translate between English and Spanish, French and Chinese in a research setting, it’s only available currently to everyday users for Chinese to English translations. The new system, which uses deep machine learning to mimic the functioning of a human brain, is called the Google Neural Machine Translation system, or GNMT. To test the system, Google had human raters evaluate translations on a scale from 0 to 6. Translating from English to Spanish, the new Google tool’s translation was rated an average of 5.43; human translators earned an average of 5.5." === Extracted from ResearchBuzz newsletter of Tara dated 4th October 2016 Dr P Vyasamoorthy 30 Gruhalakshmi Colony, Secunderabad 500015 Telangana LL 040-27846631 / Mobile: 9490804278 <http://health.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/diagnostics/old-people-suff…> Disturbed to get a call from 85 year old Ramachandran (Safiluda) was beaten again by his second son, ganging up with his mother. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
