INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Documentation Research & Training Centre 8th Mile, Mysore Road, RVCE Post Bangalore, 560 059 DRTC Seminar 3 (2014) Bio-ontologies: A case study ABSTRACT The last two decades have witnessed an explosion of biological data in diverse database formats governed by heterogeneous infrastructures. The semantics (attribute terms) and the organizations vary across the databases. Bio-ontologies are used to describe different conceptual frameworks that guide the collection, organization and publication of biological data. The bio-ontologies are a means of communicating and resolving semantic and organizational differences between biological databases in order to enhance their integration and allow interoperability. This seminar includes a short introduction on ontology and its applications followed by short descriptions on bioinformatics, its taxonomy and applications, need for bio-ontologies, ontology library and a case study on cancer ontologies with special reference to the relations. Speaker: Anwesha Bhattacharya MSLIS, II-year Date: 18.09.2014. Time: 2 p.m. Venue: DRTC, ISI Bangalore. All are cordially invited.

Europe allows public libraries to digitize material in their possession
by Subbiah Arunachalam 14 Sep '14

14 Sep '14

*Can public libraries (including university libraries) digitize their collection for dissemination to the users? * The European Court of Justice (EJC) states that authors have the right to prohibit the reproduction andcommunication of their works to the public. The court, however, clarified an exception to this right that permits public libraries, for the purpose of research or private study, to make an author's work electronically accessible to library users at electronic reading points within the libraries. The EJC said that* a library would be unable to reali**z**e "its core mission or promote the public interest in promoting research and private study without being able to do this*." However, the court emphasized that printing or electronically transferring an author's work is an act of reproduction, which, if allowed, would require fair compensation to the rights holder.

Since beginning of 2014, FAO established a strong partnership with the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Science, Agricultural Information Institute and the Ariadne Foundation, Agro-Know to produce and enhance AGRIS, the International Information System for the Agricultural Science and Technology. The first milestone was achieved with the transfer of the AGRIS data processing from Rome to Athens early in the year. Now the AGRIS steering group is having a meeting in Beijing. In September', the complete integration of the Chinese Agricultural Scientific Abstract Database into AGRIS will be released. Until now only a small percentage of the Chinese material was accessible through AGRIS. We want to use this opportunity to inform the entire AGRIS community, users and contributors, what we are doing at the moment and what is in the pipeline.
