MyLISA's Pusthaka (Book) Dasara 2014
by Sunil MV 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

Dear LIS Friends, Books are treasures. People with reading passion develop their own book treasures. After their use, the books lie unused, and remain in the treasury, some times eternally, waiting for some one to read them. They will be craving for their freedom. MyLISA, Mysore heard their grumbling sound and come out with a new campaign under the banner ‘*Book Dasara 2014*’ with the support of Department of Library and Information Science, University of Mysore, Mysore. Also, Padmashree S.R. Ranganathan, has succinctly given the philosophy of library services in the form of five fundamental laws. The third law ‘*every book its reader*’, emphasis librarians to be active in helping the books to discover its readers. In this effort MyLISA tries to conform to this law. *Book Dasara 2014 is a campaign to collect the 'Used Books' from the donors and distribute to the libraries. This campaign is being held first time in Mysore. * The books so collected between September 5 and 25, 2014 will be exhibited during first week of October 2014 for selection by libraries and children. Till date we have received 600+ books and we are expecting to reach 4 digits. For modus operandi, list of dropping center, press coverage and more information about Book Dasara 2014 please visit http://mylisamysore.weebly.com/ The list of books and the book exhibition details will be made available in MyLISA Webpage very shortly. Your views, suggestions, comments, will certainly help MyLISA to achieve success in this initiative. Many thanks, Regards, Dr. Sunil M.V. Librarian Shri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara Institute for Management Development (SDMIMD) No. 1, Chamundi Hill Main Road, Siddharthanagar Post, Mysore - 570 011, INDIA Mobile: 998639832 | Telephone: 0821-2429722 Extn: 3006 * Please consider your environmental responsibility before printing this e-mail* -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

SciDataCon aims to make explicit the connection between concrete and specific challenges to ensure environmental protection, economic prosperity and social well being along with the research questions that arise from these challenges and the necessary role of data policy, management and analysis in addressing these research questions. The effectiveness and credibility of research findings rely on the widest possible availability of quality-assessed and interoperable datasets. Accordingly, with the ambition of building a bridge between important research concerns and related data issues, the programme is structured around four tracks which correspond to the research themes of ICSU's flagship Future Earth programme, while also taking into account the challenges of data science and services. ___________________________ CODATA: International Collaboration for Open Scientific Data, an information leaflet http://bit.ly/codata_info_14-09 Join us at SciDataCon 2014, the International Conference on Data Sharing and Integration for Global Sustainability: http://www.scidatacon2014.org/registration ___________________________ Dr Simon Hodson | Executive Director CODATA | http://www.codata.org E-Mail: execdir(a)codata.org | Twitter: @simonhodson99 | Skype: simonhodson99 Blog: http://www.codata.org/blog Diary: http://bit.ly/simonhodson99-calendar Tel (Office): +33 1 45 25 04 96 | Tel (Cell): +33 6 86 30 42 59 CODATA (ICSU Committee on Data for Science and Technology), 5 rue Auguste Vacquerie, 75016 Paris, FRANCE _______________________________________________ okfn-discuss mailing list okfn-discuss(a)lists.okfn.org https://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/okfn-discuss Unsubscribe: https://lists.okfn.org/mailman/options/okfn-discuss -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
