---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- From: "Sujatha H R" <hrsujatha(a)yahoo.com> Date: Fri, July 5, 2013 7:42 pm Dear Professionals, I am Â happy to inform you thatÂ SriÂ Venkataramana Swamy College,Â Bantwal, Dakshina Kannada,Â Karnataka State, in collaboration withÂ Dakshina Kannada & Kodagu Library Association (DKKLA)Â Â is organising aÂ Two- DayÂ UGC SponsoredÂ National Conference on September 27-28, 2013.Â About the ConferenceÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â We are in the most challenging time when technology and our traditional library values are converging.Â Libraries have undergone a great paradigm shift under the influence of Information Technology (IT). With the development of automation and computing and a knowledge society, libraries have evolved to become information providers rather than mere document providers. The internet explosions have opened up electronic information to the masses and they are demanding that information be presented to them in an aesthetic manner. Indeed recent advances in the field of IT contribute significantly to improve the services of the library. Further, the impact of IT has led to a paperless society, digital libraries and virtual libraries.While acknowledging the changes taking place in the mode and service of information delivery and usage, it is important that the library profession rediscover the specialised needs and expectations of the users so that it can reevaluate its services, and reinvigorate the library professional. The future of the libraries and information centres depends on the information professionals who attempt to understand in-depth these emerging changes and equip themselves accordingly. With these concerns in mind it is planned to organize a two day national conference on âAcademic Libraries: Challenges in the Electronic Eraâ in collaboration with the Dakshina Kannada & Kodagu library Association, (R) Udupi, Karnataka. The major objectivesÂ of the symposium are:Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â To create awareness amongst the LIS professionals on the recent developments in the library and information services.Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â To find out the emerging library and information technologies for delivering quality and value added services.Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â To provide a forum to participants to share knowledge and ideas and promote closer cooperation and development amongst the information Â Â Â professionals.Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â To foster an alliance with experts and professionals for improving Library and Information Services. Main Theme:Â âACADEMIC LIBRARIES: CHALLENGES IN THE ELECTRONIC ERAâ Sub Themes:Â (but not limited to)Â Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Digital Library TechnologiesÂ·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Content ManagementÂ·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Knowledge ManagementÂ·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Digital PreservationÂ·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Open Access to KnowledgeÂ·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Emerging technologies, Web 2.0, Mobile Technologies, Library Portal, Open Source Software, Archiving of E-resources, Electronic Publishing,Â Multilingual Technologies.Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Library Networking and Consortia Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Best Practices and Innovative ServicesÂ·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Information Literacy and E-LearningÂ·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â User StudiesÂ·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Library ManagementÂ·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Soft Skills Call for PapersÂ The Conference intends to invite experts to deliver theme paper on each of the Plenary Sessions followed by invitation to authors to present their papers.

Re: [LIS-Forum] Tacit Knowledge Management
by Mukesh - Monitor 04 Jul '13

04 Jul '13

What is remarkable and significant about TACIT knowledge is that it validates what thinkers, artists, designers, writers, poets, musicians, and scientists (albeit too few of these) consistently admit: we cannot account as to the origin of the initial idea or notion that launches our investigations. Some of man's most important knowledge is TACIT and inarticulable, like the knowledge of how to swim or how to judge a work of art. Yet men use such knowledge and even depend on it for their survival. One know more than one can tell . TACIT knowledge and its management is an interesting but difficult topic to understand and implement .
