11 Mar '13

Dear Colleagues, In this era of drastic and dynamic changes we, the library professionals, have to act as a catalyst of information bridging. Our role is changed from the custodian information to information broker or change agent. As the pioneers of the changes in information society we should keep an eye on the minute reflections in the areas of information resources, information access and the marketing of information. We would like to conduct a study regarding the impact of social media in our professional life. For that we designed a questionnaire and posted herewith for your response. Please go through the weblink below and complete the survey based on your own experiences and perceptions. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1JKq5hd29bRaqcAlnkwp2LgUorRDXFB_ke8UkzBCIQG… Prijith Jacob Thomas Webpage http://prijithjacob.wordpress.com http://prijith.weebly.com/ -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Dear Librarians, We find several request for articles from Journals are mailed to th LIS-Forum. I understand that many librarians are aware of NUCSSI available for Online search via Web. However for your information; you refer to National Union Catalogue of Scientific Serials (NUCSSI) brought out by NISCAIR is also available for Online search. Its URL is: http://nucssi.niscair.res.in/Search.aspx You can search by Journal, City and Library. It gives the holdings List of the each library for the title/s you searched. You can send an email to the nearest library for the required article. Sometimes the library may not have email facility under the circumstances you can write to the Library to get the article/s I am giving here an example from the recent mail sent to LIS-Forum from the Librarian of the Gandhi Gram Institute. I find a request made by Gandhi Gram Institute for an Article appeared in South Asian Studies, Vol. 13, No. 1, 1997, which is available in two Libraries. 1. Archeological Survey of India, Delhi from Vol, 1, 1986 onwards 2. Deccan College Postgraduate and Research Institute, Pune. from V1-V13, 1985-97 only Volumes 8 and 10 are missing. NUCSSI has mostly Scientific Serials but sometimes you will find some interdisciplinary subjects too like the above example of South Asian Studies.

Reply to plagiarism and an appeal to all professionals
by Ashok Asundi 08 Mar '13

08 Mar '13

Dear LIS Professionals, In a feeling of dismay, the way things are going on in our academic circles, especially in the incessant conduct of conferences and seminars and in this context my intension was just bring an improvement in the professional literature generated by our hardworking teachers and practioners. I have been in this profession for the last 4 and a half decades and it becomes my yeomanhood that I uphold the morale of the professionals. So in the moment of consternation of the professional quality I wrote a very strong letter addressed to all professionals through this forum; to our young and senior professionals, and not directing to any single individual. If it has been felt so it is directed to all as an appeal to the entire LIS community including me. In this context if has hurt any of my good friends in the process, I feel very sorry for the same and I once again appeal that it is not directed to any one or more individuals and if it is pointed so in the letter it is only contextual and cannot be taken as personal. The young friends have sought our opinion as a senior professional on the issue, and have given a detailed account of happenings. Since I am not directly concerned with the issue, as I am not involved in the case to evaluate the worthiness of the papers, but I was involved to sit on the judgment. This provoked me to write in detail about the things that are happening and could not be relishing too any serious and senior professional. So my intention is very clear not to hurt and damage the image of any body as I know that they are doing exceedingly well in the profession sometimes better than that I performed. So it is my appeal to forget and forgo the comments and take it as directed to the improvement of the professional scholarship, if they too have a similar intentions.
