WHAT IS LIVING AND WHAT IS DEAD OF RANGANATHAN'S CONTRIBUTIONS?
by Vasanth 14 Aug '20

14 Aug '20

Dear Sir/Madam, Very debatable title, however in India we have not examined Ranganathan's Contributions to LIS in a much deeper way. Ranganathan's faceted analysis and colon classification was and is much discussed in academic parlance of western universities. There is a huge body of work available on faceted classification. But in India we have not made any siginficant or notable studies on Ranganathan's works. Serious historical research has also not been done on Indian LIS and Ranganathan's major contributions systematically. W. Boyd Rayward of School of Information Sciences, University of Illinois works on Paul Otlet is one notable examples that how we can examine LIS historiography in India. Without much or significant work on Ranganathan's postulates or ideas in India who we can assess his contributions in a more constructive way? ------------------------- With best wishes Vasantha Raju N. Librarian Mysore

by Prof. N. Laxman Rao. 14 Aug '20

14 Aug '20

Dear friends I feel that being senior professionals and experienced in this topic, I urge u to send ur feedback to prof Das. Ur valuable opinions matter a lot.RegardsLaxman Rao Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android ----- Forwarded message ----- From: "Dr. P.P. Das" <ppd(a)library.iitkgp.ac.in> To: "naglaxman(a)yahoo.com" <naglaxman(a)yahoo.com> Cc: "ppd" <ppd(a)cse.iitkgp.ac.in>, "nandgc" <nandgc(a)gmail.com> Sent: Fri, 14 Aug 2020 at 3:34 Subject: Request for comments: Draft ‘Copyright Guide for Indian Libraries' Dear Dr. Rao, Warm greetings from the National Digital Library of India (NDLI). We hope you and your family are safe and well. These are challenging times indeed. You will be pleased to know that the NDLI has responded actively to the COVID crisis. Shortly after the nationwide lock downs began in March 2020, we launched a ‘Study at Home’ service for students of all levels; a ‘COVID-19 Research Repository’ for stakeholders seeking to develop COVID-related solutions; an ‘Examination Preparatory’ service for students preparing for their board examinations; and a massive drive to make available teacher-sourced lecture videos and new educational resources from publishers. Each of these interventions has met with an overwhelming response, and since April the NDLI has experienced a continuing surge in document views and downloads. We are writing to you now about a different NDLI initiative. On 30th August 2017, IIM Ahmedabad, ADINET, INFLIBNET and Informatics, Bangalore organized a session on “Copyright, Research and Libraries: the way ahead” at Vikram Sarabhai Library, IIM Ahmedabad which was attended by more than 200 librarians from all over India. Librarians opined in this session that the Copyright issues vis-à-vis libraries are in a cloudy state and a working manual would be desirable. A working group under the leadership of Late Dr Anil Kumar, the then Librarian of IIM Ahmedabad, collected and classified questions and concerns from the Librarians in the form of a structured document of questions and concerns during September to December 2017. This concept then incubated into the NDLI as an initiative to get it embedded into the NDLI process. To take the initiative forward, NDLI in February 2018 organized a ‘National Workshop on Copyright Issues in Digital Libraries’ at IIT Kharagpur which was attended by over 100 librarians, library science professionals and copyright experts from premier Indian institutions. From the intense deliberations of the Workshop it transpired that there was an urgent interest among librarians in having a handbook that could demystify copyright issues, identify good practices, and offer practical guidelines for the copyright-related dilemmas that librarians often encounter. Thus was born the idea of developing a Copyright Guide for Indian Libraries. A team of leading IPR experts from around India set to work on the publication. On the occasion of National Library Day 2020 (12 August), we are delighted to announce that the draft Copyright Guide for Indian Libraries is now available for public consultation. You will find the document at: https://ndlproject.iitkgp.ac.in/sites/default/files/files/copyright-guide-d… We value your opinion and were keen to reach out to you personally for your feedback. We would be grateful to have your comments via this questionnaire: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfvoWAjVYbIsFdC6R2EiVoYFavT1RenUW5… The above link will remain active until 30 September 2020. Your response will help us finalize the draft of the Copyright Guide. We look forward to hearing from you. Thank you once again for being a strong supporter and well-wisher of the NDLI. Yours sincerely, Prof. Partha Pratim Das Jt. Principal Investigator, NDL Project and Professor, Department of Computer Science & Engineering Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur 721302, India
