WEEDING OUT OF BOUND PERIODICALS FOR WHICH LIBRARY HAS PERPETUAL ONLINE ACCESS
by Paul Pandian 12 Sep '18

12 Sep '18

Dear LIS Forum Member, We request your views, feedback and suggestions for the following: The Library of the Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai has over a period accumulated 50000+ bound volumes of about 600+ print journals (maths, physics and theoretical computer sciences) stored in the compact mobile racks. Of which, we have also got perpetual access rights to over 40000 volumes. We have taken a policy that we no longer bind journal issues for which we have perpetual access. In view of this and severe space constraints to store bound volumes, we are exploring options for weeding out of the bound volumes of journals. Unfortunately, there is no library weed out policy under general financial rules of government as we are a government funded institution. In the absence of established guidelines by any government agencies, are there any ways by which we can weed out library bound volumes of journals?. This is to request you to kindly share your views, suggestions and any guideline documents for library weed out policy. I also request you to kindly share your experience if you have undertaken such weed out of library materials including books etc. Thank you. With kind regards, Pandian ----- M.Paul Pandian ========================================================================= Scientific Officer (Library) | The Institute of Mathematical Sciences | (An Autonomous Institute of Department | of Atomic Energy, Goverment of India) | CIT Campus, Taramani | Chennai 600 113, Tamilnadu |Phone: +91-44-2254 3383(D) | +91-44-2254 3100(EPABX) India |Fax: +91-44-2254 1586 |E-mail: pandian(a)imsc.res.in Website https://library.imsc.res.in ========================================================================= -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Must for Library Professionals in Digital Era
by Dp Tripathi 12 Sep '18

12 Sep '18

Musts for Library Professional: To become a successful library professional in profession, it is essential to keep the seven points alive all the time: 1. Active Responder: A normal library user enters the library with hope to get the desired material with less effort. Here, a library professional should play the role as ‘Active Responder’ by attending the many queries at a time and also keep alive the unfulfilled demand till the demand is fulfilled. 2. Empathetic behavior: Empathy allows your inner conscious to feel other’s pain as if you have pain. A library professional must respond in empathetic manner to the library users and also must try to build the enough confidence in them to use library resources & services with self-help. 3. Service before Self: A library professional should enter the library with motto “Service before Self”. In another word, five laws of library science should always remain in mind and library professional must offer himself after service to the library. 4. Tactful Approach: Library is center of service where a user approaches with different attitudes and options. A tactful approach by library professional will help to deal the various types of users with ease and can avoid inviting bad name to the profession. 5. Perseverance: It is better to knock other door if library professional cannot devote his heart and soul to the profession as library profession requires very hard work and perseverance. Library profession is just not the last door for rejected soul rather it demands enough patience and disposition toward profession. 6. Service with Smile: A library professional must be capable enough to guide others in true sense. S/he must be conversant with library resources available in the library in order to provide the service with smile. Library Professional’s capability should attract the library users towards himself to quench the thirst. 7. Collection development without any prejudice: Collection development in the library by a library professional must be without any prejudice. However, the library professional should not build the collection which is below standard. At the same time, rejection of documents should not be based on personal like or dislike for declaring the documents as below standard.
