Dear All, As suggested by Shri. N. V. Satyanarayana Sir, there is an urgent need to initiate a dialogue/ debate with NEP (Draft) Committee Coordinators on the inclusion of 'Libraries" as distinct chapter in the new National Education Policy. It will help us revive the rapidly diminishing image of the libraries and librarians on the academic campuses. The national bodies such as ILA must take a lead on this front.

Clarification about Emerging Source Citation Index
by shashi bhat 18 Jun '19

18 Jun '19

Dear Sir / Madam, I would like to know about the status of the Journalsindexed in “Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI)” of Clarivate Analytics. If the Journalslisted in this database, can we consider them as indexed in “Web of Science” because most of thejournals are using the symbol below and states as indexed in Emerging SourceCitation Index of Web of Science. But there is no impact factor for thesejournals. Please clarify regarding this. With Regards, Mrs. Shashikala K Librarian, Deralakatte, Mangalore - 575018. Ph: 0824-2204572, 2204963 (ext.-234) Mob: +919448869047.

Dear Ms. Lalitha, For promotions under the Career Advancement Scheme (CAS) of UGC, one has to complete Two Refresher Courses or Summer/ Winter School Programmes of 03 weeks duration (minimum 18 working days with 108 contact classes). Short Term Courses of 01 Week duration will not be considered for the purpose. Nowadays, you can attend ARPIT Courses on SWAYAM Platform in lieu of UGC Refresher Courses. The UGC is planning to reduce the number of days from the present 21 days (3 weeks) to 14 days (2 weeks). I hope this information clarifies your query.
